Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Lohin is a hands-on security engineer and systems practitioner with eight years of experience building secure, highly virtualized environments for DoD and commercial clients. He combines deep Linux/Unix and VMware administration with practical security engineering—threat modeling, HBSS-style baselines, IDS monitoring, and large-scale cyber exercise planning—to harden networks and validate defenses under realistic attack scenarios. As an educator and course creator, he translates technical rigor into teachable content (adjunct professor, Udemy courses, and a security blog), and he automates lab provisioning with Python and AWS to make learning reproducible. Daniel’s background in systems administration, SDN-enabled lab-as-a-service architecture, and small-scale development (Python, C#) gives him a rare perspective that bridges operations, secure design, and developer workflows.
