About Jon Gorenflo

When Jon Gorenflo took a job as a network administrator early in his career, the security responsibility of the position was mentioned almost as an afterthought. However, “it didn't take long for me to realize I was spending 90 percent of my time administering security products,” he says. With no seasoned security veterans internally for Jon to lean on, he collaborated with teammates and found mentors by taking SANS classes, reading the SANS Pen Test blog and listening to the Security Weekly Podcast.

Students Say

  • Slide 1 of 3
    I can honestly say I have learned a lot more than I thought I was going to before the course started. I would like to thank Jon for making the course very enjoyable and breaking it down so that all users can understand.

    Jon's experience and anecdotes are extremely helpful in understanding the course content and tools. He breaks down large complex areas into smaller, easy to understand concepts which are then backed up by the labs.
