St. Louis, Missouri – April 7, 2016 – High-profile data breaches at Target and eBay affected 70 million and 145 million consumers, respectively. Data breaches cost businesses $400 million in 2014 alone. These revelations from the 2015 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report have led to a new partnership between Selsius™ Corporate & Career Training and Alpine Security.
Alpine Security (alpinesecurity.com) specializes in cybersecurity training, emphasizing
hands-on technical instruction. Principal/White Hat Hacker Christian Espinosa is a U.S. Air Force veteran who has worked in cybersecurity for over 20 years and has held over 15
