A big shout out to the The Pikes Peak Workforce Center , Tracie Marques, Erica Romero and her team for providing an opportunity to apply for a WIOA grant for our company to upskill some of our IT and Cybersecurity Workforce! They onboarded our organization, helped us through the application process and worked with our employees to ensure we were compliant with the requirements which then allowed us to qualify for the funding! We paid their time to attend the CompTIA, Inc. Security + class back in March and were reimbursed for their class. We are happy to announce that both of our team members successfully navigated the exam and are now certified!

As a cybersecurity business, we must keep up with industry qualifications to stay relevant. Sometimes these credentials are expensive. Sharing the overall cost with the PPWFC saved us thousands of dollars and benefited our team and our company!

Workforces are in every state and territory in the Unites States. They have many resources for people to upskill, find jobs, polish resumes. There are many resources for employers as well. The workforce centers should be a strategic resource and partner for businesses of all sizes. We would encourage all people to check out their workforce center!

Be honest with yourself for a second.
How many times have you opened a study guide, watched a few videos, and then let it sit for two weeks?
That's not a discipline problem. That's what happens when there's no structure, no instructor to explain the why behind the material, and no one keeping you accountable.
Most people who try to self-study for Security+ don't finish. And the ones who do often show up to the exam underprepared because passing a practice test is not the same as understanding how security actually works on the job.
Murray Security Services delivers live, instructor-led Security+ training — June 22–25. Four days. Real cyber professionals in the room. Over 50 hours of hands-on labs built around what the job actually looks like.
If you've been putting this off, June is your window.

To the fallen — thank you.
There are no words big enough for what was given. So today we simply stop, remember, and say their names if we know them.

To the families still carrying this loss every day: we see you, and we honor your loved ones alongside you.

Rest easy. We've got the watch.

Leaving the military after years of leading cyber operations, managing information security, or running intelligence programs — and now trying to figure out how to explain all of that to a civilian hiring manager?

You're not starting over. You're translating.
The C|CISO certification was built for exactly where you are. It covers the leadership domains you've already lived — risk governance, program management, strategic planning, security finance — and gives employers a credential they recognize that reflects the level you've already been operating at.
And it satisfies the DoD 8140 Cyber Workforce Requirements.

Murray Security Services offers live, instructor-led C|CISO prep in a small cohort setting, online or in person. Taught by people who have held the CISO seat and understand what the transition actually looks like.

You've already done the work. This is how you show it.

When two candidates are equally qualified for a CISO role, the one with the C|CISO has a tangible differentiator — and a signal to the hiring organization that they’ve done the work to think at the executive level, not just the operational one.
That matters more than people expect.
CISO hiring committees aren’t just looking for someone who can secure an environment. They’re looking for someone who can own a security program, present to a board, manage security spend, and build a team from the ground up.
The CCISO is the only certification that directly tests all of that.
Murray Security Services runs a small-cohort, live CCISO program starting May 11. Taught by instructors who have held CISO roles and consult actively — not trainers reading from a curriculum.
If you’re positioning for a CISO role this year, this is worth a conversation

We only have a few seats left for our CISSP training, and April 13th is coming fast.

This is a hybrid class — you can join live online from anywhere or attend in person in Colorado. Either way, it's the same live instruction, same questions answered in real time, April 13–18.

The CISSP is brutal if you go in unprepared. The exam doesn't care how much you memorized. It wants to know how you think under pressure. That's a hard thing to learn alone.

Our instructors walk you through the reasoning, not just the material. Big difference.

If you've been sitting on this, now's the time. We're in partnership with Training Camp and use authorized (ISC)² materials — this is the real deal.

The hardest transition in cybersecurity isn’t technical.
It’s learning to stop solving problems yourself and start building the systems, teams, and governance structures that solve them at scale.
Most certifications don’t prepare you for that. They test what you know. The CCISO tests how you lead.

Security program management. Risk governance. Budget ownership. Strategic planning. These aren’t add-ons to the technical work — they are the job at the executive level.

Our CCISO program is taught by practitioners who made that transition themselves — active consultants who have held CISO roles and continue to work in real security organizations.

Small cohort. Direct access. Live instruction starting May 11.
If you’re navigating that shift, this is a worthwhile conversation.
