TSYS School cybersecurity nexus students once again benefitted from the expertise of Josh Mason, who co-authored the curriculum for the eJPT certification course from INE, the premier provider of technical training for the IT industry. According to Patrick Aiken, Director of the TSYS Center for Cybersecurity, "For the last few cohorts, Josh takes the time every semester to jump on a video conference to give a pep talk to our cybersecurity nexus students . . . right before they take the eJPT certification exam. Josh has a big presence in the cybersecurity community and is undoubtedly a busy guy, but he still takes time to inspire and pass on his knowledge to the ones coming into the industry." The eLearnSecurity Junior Penetration Tester exam (eJPT) validates that an individual has the knowledge and skills needed to fulfill a role as an entry-level penetration tester. The eJPT is designed to be the first milestone for someone with little to no experience in cyber security, simulating the skills penetration testers utilize during real-world engagement in a hands-on testing atmosphere. Aiken thanked fellow nexus instructor Armando Fernandez for coordinating Mason's virtual visit each semester. Current and former nexus students also lauded Mason's participation in the program. According to Gage Hall, a former nexus program student who is now serving in an information security operations internship, "Awesome experience when our cohort chatted with him. Blessed to have such outreach from the cyber community." Speaking on Mason's recent virtual visit, current nexus student Eli White added, "It was a huge encouragement." Mason earned an undergraduate degree from the United States Air Force Academy, and an MBA in aviation from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
