Professional education for people who need to reason under pressure.
Teaching as capability-building.
Jonathan has taught practitioners and leaders across public and private sectors, including security teams, investigators, analysts, executives, military and government audiences, and international cohorts.
The emphasis is not tool tourism. The emphasis is mental model, evidence, process, and the practical judgment required to operate in uncertain environments.
Common themes
- Network forensics and packet analysis
- Digital forensics and incident response
