When we decided that security consulting and training would be our mission, we sat down to try and figure out what we ourselves bring to the table, and what we needed to add.
​
Our hearts are so invested into this program, and we cannot fly by and hope that it works. We have to know that it works! So not only do we rely on our own expertise and education, but we have brought in experts in other fields to supplement and improve our levels of knowledge.
We are all professionals, but we are also still learning. It is our goal to be the best we can be, in all the disciplines that we purport to teach.
