Designed and developed enterprise software solution that fully automates the acquisition, installation, and management of digital certificates, saving organizations time and money while keeping data and businesses safe from hackers.GoGetCert enables automated SSL certificate renewal, distribution, installation, and binding, which can be set to update quarterly, monthly, or even weekly, with no human intervention, no manual errors, no certificates, keys, or passwords used or shared among staff, increasing security.GoGetCert replaces antiquated and error-prone SSL management and monitoring with an all-encompassing, automatically maintained display of all domains, certificates, and servers across your enterprise with a simple, ‘view at a glance’ dashboard.GoGetCert allows automated digital certificates to update application service authentication for consumers of your cloud services, eliminating another manual touch point.What our customers say:“Our application owners are no longer aware that their certificate has updated. They’ve even begun to forget that they used to have to get up in the middle of the night to make that happen.”“The automation allows us to reliably change the certificates frequently, which greatly improves the security of our data center applications and reduces our costs.”

Tirion Solutions is a leading provider of single sign-on (SSO) and secure identity management for state government-managed networks. We have been administering federal Medicaid programs since 2006. Our proprietary Tirion Automated Identity ManagerⓇ solutions replace the proliferation of passwords, user IDs, authentication systems, provisioning approvals, and more.They also allow for quick adjustments as users change roles within the organization or gain/lose access to specific applications.As Chief Enterprise Architect, I lead the integration of various US state governments, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, and Gainwell Technologies web applications (Medicaid) with a SAML token based single-sign-on system (SSO) designed by Tirion. This system uses Microsoft ADFS to route security requests between the various web applications. It includes "claims-aware" web applications, older NT token based ASP applications as well as JSP / Java applications that required proprietary interfaces. This work entailed the use of public key infrastructure (PKI) technology to handle data encryption and digital signatures necessary to exchange user credentials across private LANs as well as internet connected gateways. I also spearheaded the development and implementation of reusable virtual machine templates for VMware ESX Hypervisor that reduced setup time from weeks to days for new Tirion single-sign-on installations.

Served as lead architect and developer of an internal website for scheduling enrollment and issuance of US government-mandated smart card badges for all 10K NASA contractors and civil servants at Kennedy Space Center.The system included user self-scheduling of appointments with personalized email confirmations and Outlook calendar integration, a stand-alone HID reader badge swipe utility for tracking the movement of badges around the space center, an automated personalized mass email processor, DTS integration with data from Marshall Space Flight Center, and a reporting sub-system with integrated security (IWA) from the browser to the database.The successful implementation of this high visibility application resulted in a NASA Technically Significant Software Award. Johnson Space Center and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory also implemented this software. Developed a prototype implementation of NASA's eAuthentication service. This work served as a "how to" demonstration of the US government-mandated eAuthentication security architecture for Kennedy Space Center application developers. Appointed the eAuthentication Security Subject Matter Expert at Kennedy Space Center. Designed and developed several tools in C# to aid the implementation of SEI CMMI Level 3 software engineering standards. These included template driven document generators for database description and software version description. These tools allowed fellow developers to quickly and consistently generate documentation required for CMMI compliance. Redesigned the database for KSC's systems management tool to normalize data and make it available for secured enterprise access and maintenance. Designed and implemented an abstraction layer for KED to increase performance, scalability and reliability.
