Kalkaska native works to improve diversity in cybersecurity

A Kalkaska native is now an international best-selling author and an expert in cybersecurity.

Ken Underhill says he’s fed up with Hollywood’s portrayal of cybersecurity pros as “hackers in a dark basement,” so he’s working to improve diversity in the industry. He’s now trained more than one million people.

Ken graduated from Kalkaska High School in 1999. He’s the co-author of “Hack the Cybersecurity Interview: A complete interview preparation guide for jumpstarting your cybersecurity career.”
