Top SchoolBrant Goings is a Cyber Security Engineer with eight years of hands-on experience across private and public sectors, specializing in network security, RMF, and data-driven automation. Based in Ashburn, VA, he holds an active DoD Secret clearance and has led projects migrating legacy networks to IP-based architectures while aligning NIST 800-53 baselines. He combines deep networking expertise—BGP/MPLS proof-of-concepts, SDN exploration, and Cisco/ASA troubleshooting—with practical automation skills in Python, Ansible, UiPath, and Power Automate to replace manual processes and quantify syslog/storage needs. At MITRE and Navy assignments he served as WAF admin and Navy Qualified Validator, demonstrating both offensive/defensive chops and compliance rigor. Curious about cloud-native network security and cloud automation, he’s actively pivoting those proven on-prem skills toward modern, scalable environments. A pragmatic problem-solver, he pairs rigorous RMF training with a track record of turning proofs-of-concept into repeatable solutions.
