Jon has overall responsibility for the strategic direction and business development of CastleGarde. As a former Vice President in Information Technology for a Fortune 50 company, Jon had worldwide experience in the areas of managing information systems, software development and delivery systems, and financial management systems and services. His key focus is leveraging technology in new and innovative ways that provide higher value and service to our current and future clients. With over 30 years of information technology experience, business management and consulting experience, Jon brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership skills to the company. Under his leadership, CastleGarde has grown from a fledgling company to a national consulting firm with three offices across the United States providing services to Clients in Europe. Jon has guided CastleGarde through the deployment of several new lines of business in support of the changing regulatory directives and technical demands of the evolving information security threats. Before acquiring CastleGarde, Jon founded several technical services companies, an application service provider company providing networking security, voice or data communications systems and an application software development consortium. Serving as Castlegarde's President and CEO, Jon feels it is necessary to take time to speak with industry user groups to keep abreast of their growing information security needs. Jon did his undergraduate studies at the University of South Florida in Electrical Engineering (in the days before Computer Science programs existed). Jon holds and maintains several industry certifications including Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Information System Auditor (CISA), and Certified Information System Manager (CISM), Certified TG-3 Auditor (CTGA), Certified in the Governance of Information Technology (CGEIT) and Certified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) among others.
