Jose A Ruiz Marquez

Currently, I serve as professor at multiple esteemed institutions, including EDP University of Puerto Rico, AGM University Online Campus at Orlando Florida and the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico where I lecture on various cybersecurity and IT topics. My role extends beyond teaching to include course and syllabus development, aligning curricula with industry standards and certifications such as CompTIA. I have hands-on experience in installing, configuring, and troubleshooting LAN/WAN hardware and software in corporate environments, implementing risk mitigation strategies, conducting vulnerability assessments, and ensuring compliance with security policies. As a Subject Matter Expert (SME), I develop and translate course content for degrees and certifications in both English and Spanish. Additionally, I provide freelance consulting services, offering expert testimony and forensic analysis for legal cases, conducting vulnerability assessments, and delivering cybersecurity workshops. I hold numerous certifications including CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, Server+, Cloud+, CySA+, Pentest+, and CASP+, as well as Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA), Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), and Offensive Security Wireless Professional (OSWP). I am currently pursuing a Doctoral degree in Technology Applications in Global Logistics and Distribution at Interamerican University of Puerto Rico. I am fluent in English and Spanish and have presented at major conferences such as Obsidis Consortia, B-Sides Security Conference, ACFE Monthly meets and the ISACA Symposium. Passionate about bridging the gap between academic theory and practical application in cybersecurity, I continuously try to contribute to the development of future cybersecurity professionals through education and industry engagement.
