Team Takeover: Jordan Mellor, IT Engineer at Everything Tech

Meet Jordan, one of our team members levelling up their cybersecurity game!

As part of our ongoing commitment to learning and development, Jordan recently completed the Level 4 Cyber Security Engineer course. This 18-month program provides a comprehensive introduction to cybersecurity, focusing on external threats, preventative security measures, and the legal and regulatory frameworks that underpin modern cyber protection. Jordan completed the program with Merit, a fantastic achievement. 

We caught up with him to learn more about what motivated his decision, what he took away from the course, and how the training is already making a difference in his work. 

What inspired you to pursue a cybersecurity qualification?

To learn about the world of Cybersecurity and to have the skills to protect people and businesses from cyber threats. 

What key cybersecurity skills or knowledge did you gain from the course?

I learnt about how phishing emails are created and sent, and ways to detect phishing emails that are extremely close to legitimate emails. 

How does cybersecurity training support your current role?

It allows me to investigate cyber-threats more effectively and put in place additional protections/recommendations for businesses. 

What improvements have you seen in your cybersecurity skills since completing the course?

The ability to address more security concerns, put users’ minds at ease and suggest stronger protections. 

What are your thoughts on continuous learning in Tech?

It’s essential. Tech is constantly evolving, new tools, new threats, and new ways of working pop up all the time. Keeping your knowledge up to date isn’t optional; it’s part of being able to do the job well. 

What Advice Would You Give to Someone Considering Cybersecurity Courses or Certifications?

Try to link your training into your work wherever possible, as the skills you’re training to have will become part of your day-to-day and become natural.
