About Daniel Griggs
Twenty years doing cyber operations in the Army. Defensive missions, deployed systems, training soldiers to secure networks before they touched anything in production. I lived 8570 and 8140 requirements—readiness, compliance, workforce development, all of it. After retirement, I moved into government consulting helping federal teams figure out what certs they need and how to get there.
