Now let’s learn more about Jarrett ~
Tell us a little about yourself?
I am a 22 year old U of A College graduate with a degree in Computer Engineering. Originally from Conway, AR, I have decided to continue to live in Fayetteville and recently accepted a position at Edafio working in Rogers office.
What does your job entail?
I am a member of the Security team, where I will assist in performing assessments of the safety and security of clients’ IT assets. This will include vulnerability scans, physical walkthroughs, and data collection incorporated in final reports. Other responsibilities will include helping implement security awareness programs and assisting other team members with all other services the security team delivers.
What brought you to Edafio?
I was a summer intern on the security team at Edafio’s NLR office in 2019 and loved it. Their cybersecurity services are expanding, and with cybersecurity still an interest of mine after college, Edafio is the perfect fit.
What do you like to do most outside of work?
I enjoy spending time with my friends, golfing, cheering on Razorback sports, going to the lake in the summers or hunting in the winter.
Do you have a favorite newspaper, newsletter, book, blog and/or podcast?
The Razorback Daily podcast
What skill do you think everyone should learn?
Social/Communication skills
What upcoming technological innovation will dramatically impact the industry in the next five years?
I honestly do not know enough to give a proper answer. My best guess would be something that can reduce the most significant cyber threat: human error.
