Seeking trainers for law enforcement

Hey there folks,
All too many of us in the information security/computer/security research
community have generously offered to help out our local constabulary with
our computer/network/cyber/* knowledge, only to get slapped down with some
arrogant bullshit from some cynical flatfoot about how if you're not a LEO
you can't help, or we'd love to but blah blah blah.

Well, if you're so inclined, and if would like to do some public service
training (forensics, pen testing and/or basic infosec) for law enforcement
officers and analysts, I can connect you with some stakeholders themselves
(in the northeastern US) who are ready to listen and really want some
training and help.

I've been working with a good guy at a respected agency who has a pretty
important job. He and his team are increasingly dependent upon cyber
resources they don't possess, or at which they realize they could be better.
He said that if I could get him some people to help train him and his crew
he'd be very grateful and he'd take the help.

The organization may be able to get you T&E, and they'll certainly be nice
to you, AND you'll get the satisfaction of providing your community with a
highly valuable service that may well keep people safer and even save lives.


If you're interested, please read this post:

then follow the instructions. Note: you need a clean criminal history, and
they'll be a-checkin'. Give me some basic info about you and a link to some
of your work. At some point, if it looks like you're a good candidate, I'll
get back in touch and I'll need your full, real name and DOB  but I can send
you my PGP info so you can send it, or we can speak on the phone.

Note: I don't get anything other than the rewards described above (actually
I'm not even getting T&E, so there). And I won't run interference. I'm
collecting the list of people and their particulars, then delivering it
personally to the unit commander; from there it's all him and you unless one
or both of you ask me for more help.

Thanks in advance!
Nick
