My name is Casey Mayfield, and this is my first time creating blog. This is most certainly exciting as I get to share some of my experiences with my fellow doctoral classmates! I am currently a Sr. Cybersecurity Manager for a fortune 200 company. I have been in the information technology and cybersecurity industry for just over 10 years. I have enjoyed information technology and the policing associated with cybersecurity and I foresee doing this well into retirement age. Speaking of age, I am still in my 20's and I consider this to be a significant accomplishment as those at my company in the same position as me have 20+ years of experience. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication that I have put into not only my academics, but my professional career as well. I have amassed several information technology certifications in my 10 years, coupled with an undergraduate degree in information technology with a focus in advanced networking along with an MBA and a Masters of Science in Information Systems Management. These accolades have most certainly propelled my career to where it is today.  I look forward to completing my doctorate degree as this is the highest academic distinction that can be bestowed on a student. I believe that this blog will be about the future of information technology and getting a better understanding of how these emerging technologies can be leveraged from an information security perspective.
