ABOUT ME.
I’m Matt Fretz, a dedicated cybersecurity professional with six years of experience in the industry. Throughout my career, I have obtained a strong foundation in cybersecurity principles and achieved multiple certifications, including CompTIA A+, Security+, CYSA+, and CSAP. These certifications have equipped me with a comprehensive skill set in threat analysis, vulnerability assessment, incident response, network security, data protection, and risk management.
In addition to my expertise in cybersecurity, I am an avid tech enthusiast. I love exploring emerging technologies and have hands-on experience in programming with Python and JavaScript. Recently, I have been diving into the capabilities of the OpenAI API and the Langchain JavaScript library, pushing the boundaries of what these cutting-edge tools can achieve.
My passion extends beyond cybersecurity and tech. I am deeply fascinated by the potential of blockchain technology, and I actively invest in and stay updated on the latest developments in this field. Furthermore, during my spare time, I find excitement and fulfillment in playing paintball, which nurtures my teamwork and strategic thinking skills.
By combining my certifications, technical skills, and diverse interests, I bring a well-rounded perspective to my work in cybersecurity. I have successfully conducted thorough threat analyses, identified vulnerabilities, implemented effective security measures, and handled incident responses. With strong communication skills, I am capable of explaining complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders, and I have a proven track record of delivering cybersecurity training programs that raise awareness and promote best practices.
