About the presenter:

Jason Brown, CNNA & CISSO, currently serves as the Chief Information Security Officer for Merit Network, the county’s longest running regional research and education network, and home of the Michigan CyberRange, a globally recognized resource for the development of Cybersecurity professionals and advanced research in Cybersecurity.

Jason’s passion is security and education.  For the past decade he has been working his way up in the industry, starting as a network technician at Ferris State University, to recently being names as one of only two enterprise security architects for the State of Michigan.  Jason earned his Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology from  Central Michigan University in 2007, and his Master’s in Management Information Systems from Ferris State University in 2009. His dedication to continuing education has earned him several certifications, including his CCNA and CISSP. Jason has always aimed to become a leader in information security, and is thrilled to be in the role of Merit Network’s 1st Chief Information Security Officer.

Merit Cybersecurity staff are deeply involved in local, state and national Cybersecurity defense communities—working with a variety of entities on cooperation, collaboration and communication.  Keeping an eye on where cyberattack planes are headed and how things are changing is a natural part of the mix, which is why partnerships among the research and education community—higher education institutions, the Department of Homeland Security, NIST, NICE, and law enforcement are invaluable to their work.
