Influencing people via Cybersecurity
Cyber Sentinel Ink: When Passion Leaves a Mark
I never imagined that my work in cybersecurity could influence someone so deeply that they’d literally wear it on their skin. Today, I received a message that initially seemed like your typical social media notification – perhaps a meme or a funny infographic. Boy, was I wrong.
The picture attached took my breath away. There I was, inked into someone’s arm – a cyber sentinel, watching over them. Someone I’ve never met, someone I don’t know, felt moved enough to make me a permanent part of their story.
Alongside the image was a heartfelt thank you message (which I’ll keep private) for the impact my cybersecurity books, YouTube videos, LinkedIn articles, and blog posts have had on their life.
Moments like this remind me why I do what I do. Touching lives, making a real difference – that’s the fuel that keeps me going.
It’s an incredible feeling to know that my passion for cybersecurity has rippled out into the world, leaving a mark far more permanent than any digital footprint.
This motivates me to continue creating content and sharing my knowledge, knowing that it can have such a profound impact.
My cybersecurity books, articles on LinkedIn, YouTube channel, and this blog have reached countless individuals, providing them with the tools and knowledge to navigate the complex world of cybersecurity.
I’ve been honored to receive many global awards as a speaker, author, and cybersecurity professional, but what truly matters to me is being part of this incredible community.
With gratitude,
