I'm Evan Birt, a Security Engineer certified in Systems Security, with a focus on usability, precision, and trust.
With lean teams, I create systems that simplify user experience and strengthen decision-making.
My background spans systems engineering, embedded Linux, cybersecurity, and interface design. I've been passionate about technology for a long time and continue to explore it in my free time—particularly through studying threat events, response mechanisms, and how user behavior directly affects system risk.
I've completed Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) training through ISC2, along with coursework for SSCP, CompTIA Security+, and ASEP by INCOSE.
I took graduate-level engineering courses at Colorado State University, earning a 3.8 GPA, and hold a B.S. in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics from MSU Denver.
