Meet your Instructor

Ron Woerner, CISSP, CISM

Hi, I'm Ron, your instructor for this class.

I have over 20 years of Information Technology (IT) and Security experience and am a noted consultant, speaker, and writer in the Security industry. As President and Chief Security Evangelist at Cyber-AAA, I work as a Security Consultant delivering awareness, performing security risk assessments, and advising small, medium, and large organizations.

I established the Cybersecurity Studies program at Bellevue University, an NSA Center of Academic Excellence where I still teach. I have been a featured speaker at the Omaha TEDx ("Hackers Wanted"), (ISC)2, ISACA, and RSA conferences.
My crowning achievement was being selected as the Air Force Association CyberPatriot Mentor of the Year in 2014 for my work coaching High School Students in cybersecurity.
I love to talk to others who are passionate about Security and Privacy.
