“Mike is a great guy to work with on both a personal and a technical level. Mike has an incredible knowledge of so many areas that you could talk to him for hours and keep interested in the conversation. Technically, I would always choose to work with Mike because he knows security from both an offensive and a defense level. Security without the offensive knowledge is not security and Mike knows his was around the offensive field and, as such, knows how to create a security program with an appropriate defensive strategy. Mike will also speak up for what is right and will soon say if methods and practices are wrong. This is something sorely missed in the world and Mike knows how to do it the right way.”
