Walter Speelman
Moving to Silicon Valley shortly after personal computers were first invented, Walter had the opportunity to be one of the first group of students to be able to test using personal computers in a classroom setting. From programming all day on his first computer, a Commodore Vic 20, to establishing the very first "computer club" in his school, his passion for technology started the moment his fingers touched the keyboard, and that passion has never diminished. Throughout his schooling, his electives and free time were always spent working on computers; it was no surprise to anyone that after college he would end up in an Information Technology role. Over 28 years later, Walter is still passionate and driven to explore new emerging technologies.Since initially receiving his CISSP certification, Walter has been progressively getting more and more involved in the security ecosphere he loves through volunteering and sharing that drive and passion with others. He has been a volunteer for a previous Security Congress, is a chapter officer for the (ISC)² Central Florida chapter, is helping support other non-profit security organizations to educate new generations of students about cyber security, and is participating in the Chapter Leaders Task Force. When not heads down in the office or volunteering, Walter is spending time with his family and friends, and doing fun "touristy" things around Central Florida every chance he gets.
