Mr. Johnson has worked in information technology and security for over 15 years, focusing specifically on computer and Internet security for the last seven years. In 1996, while working in the Security and Intelligence Office at DARPA, he implemented the Extranet for Security Professionals (ESP) as a proof of concept secure web application. When the ESP technology moved to Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute, Mr. Johnson worked as an adjunct professor in InfoSec and also served as the technical director of the ESP. Working with the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT/CCtm), he refined and matured the software and networking environment that supported both the ESP and the DoD Y2K reporting system in support of the Deputy Secretary of Defense. Since The ESP Group was formed, Mr. Johnson has been running enterprise-scale secured network applications for customers ranging from private pharmaceutical companies to the U.S. Government (DoD, Department of Energy, NASA and OPM). Mr. Johnson holds a current CISSP certification. |
