About the Expert
Meet Jeff Bennett
He literally wrote the book on industrial security.
After transitioning from the Army into the defense sector, Jeff Bennett mastered the complex world of industrial security, earning his board certification in just one year. Recognizing that the government’s official security manual (the NISPOM) was notoriously difficult to navigate, he began writing his own study guides and publishing user-friendly, spiral-bound versions of the regulations to help others succeed.
With over 20 years of FSO experience and a track record of earning commendable and superior ratings, Jeff provides a personalized mentorship approach. While others offer rigid, one-size-fits-all remote oversight, Jeff bridges the gap between complex government regulations and practical execution.
