Summary
Jonathan Cooper is a seasoned technology executive and cybersecurity practitioner with over two decades of systems, security engineering, and architecture experience and more than a decade in senior leadership roles. As CTO and former VP of Professional Services at True Zero Technologies, he bootstrapped and scaled a cybersecurity consultancy into a client-focused firm that blends deep technical expertise with business-aligned service delivery. His background spans hands-on engineering—from Splunk architecture, SIEMs, and identity management to automation and virtualized infrastructure—to program and financial leadership across public and private sector engagements. Known for translating complex security requirements into pragmatic, sustainable solutions, he emphasizes partnership and contextualized deployments that become extensions of client teams. Based in Fredericksburg, VA, he pairs a B.S. in Information Technology with a track record of driving emergent technology adoption and operationalizing MSSP and managed services. An underappreciated strength is his history of combining custom automation and scripting with enterprise security architectures to streamline sustainment and reduce risk.
