Christopher Merritt Email & Phone Number

With over 15 years of experience in IT and law enforcement, I am a cybersecurity student and IT specialist who is passionate about protecting data and systems from malicious attacks. Currently, I work as an IT Manager at Aegis Medical Group. I am also pursuing a Cybersecurity CERT from the University of South Florida to enhance my skills and knowledge in this field. I was a law enforcement officer at the Sumter County Sheriff's Office, where I served as a CID detective and was trained in mobile forensics. I also have a background in the military, having served as an infantry soldier in the Florida National Guard for seven years, including a tour in Iraq. My core competencies include cybersecurity, network security, ethical hacking, threat modeling, mobile forensics, and law enforcement. I am driven by the mission of safeguarding the public and the assets from cyber threats, and I value collaboration, integrity, and innovation. I am excited to bring my diverse perspectives and experiences to the team and contribute to the organization's goals.
