ATLANTA, Feb. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- President
and CEO of LIGATT Security International, (Pink
Sheets: LGTT) Gregory D. Evans
continues to be a leading expert in the cyber security
industry. According to Nelson Media Research, who analyzes the
television audiences, more than 20 million people in the
United States have heard Evans speak about cyber crime, as of
February 2011. These figures are a low estimate, as they do
not include the audiences that have heard Evans speak while on his
Cyber Crime College Tour, people who have read his magazine
articles, or listeners of his numerous radio appearances.
"I am extremely grateful for the media opportunities that were
given to me over the last year. I am fortunate enough to educate
others, and I am eager to get started on some of the new projects
we have lined up," says Evans.
Gregory Evans has received
numerous endorsements from email security companies. "I cannot
believe how much money people are willing to pay to put my name on
their products. Only in America can someone profit off a negative
thing," comments Evans.
Evans' expertise is frequently featured in a variety of media
outlets such as, The History Channel's "Modern Marvels". On the
program, he demonstrated the capabilities of computer surveillance
and the destruction of cyber terrorism, as well as discussed how
spyware works and taught viewers how to protect their wireless
networks. Evans has made numerous television appearances on CNN,
FOX, CBS, The Steve Harvey Project, and many more. He has been
featured in numerous newspapers and magazines including the Wall
Street Journal, Sun Newspaper, LA Times, USA Today, Black
Enterprise, Wells Fargo Business Journal, and JET magazine, to name
a few. In 2010, Evans was featured in the book, Who's Who in Black
Atlanta, in addition to being awarded a Certified Master
Anti-Terrorism Specialist certificate by the Anti Terrorism
Accreditation Board.
Evans continuously shares his knowledge by educating his
audience at various events. He has spoken at the 2009 National Bar
Association Conference in San Diego,
California explaining to lawyers and law firms across the
nation on how to properly protect themselves, their business and
their clients' information. Additionally, Evans has spoken at
Global Entrepreneurship Week held at the University of
Miami, the 6th Annual 100 Black
Men Symposium, the 2010 FAA Cyber Security Seminar, the 2010 Campus
and Fire Safety Conference & Expo, Resource Center for
Technology Workshop, Ohio State University, Voorhees
College, ITT Technical Institute, South Carolina State
University, University of South
Carolina, University of Dallas, University of
Alabama, Florida Atlantic
University, University of North
Carolina, and Atlanta Technical College.
"This year we are focusing more on Gregory D. Evans, the brand, and striving to
re-position Evans on an international platform," comments
Katrina Highsmith, Director of
Public Relations at LIGATT Security International. "With Evans
gaining international media attention, he will be able to spread
computer security awareness not only throughout the nation, but
world-wide."
In December 2010, Gregory
Evans received National Sales Network's 2010 1st Humanitarian
Award for his continuing involvement within the community. Evans
was honored as an outstanding Humanitarian and recognized as an
industry leader who positively impacted the life of others. As a
community benefactor, Evans realizes he has overcome the
obstacles that block many others from similar accomplishments. He
is very much aware of his power to serve as a positive role model
for young people who might otherwise gravitate toward unproductive
or unlawful lifestyles. He has given away scholarships and laptop
computers to two underprivileged young ladies, allowing them the
full opportunity to attend college.
As a computer security mogul, Evans has written eight books
on high-tech security issues. His first, dedicated to laptop
security, was entitled, "Laptop Security Short & Simple." He
also authored the first book ever dedicated to spyware, "The
Spyware Reference & Study Guide." His current book "How to
Become the World's No. 1 Hacker Short & Simple," is selling
more than any other computer security book.
"It's not even the end of February, and I have already
accomplished nearly half of the goals that I have planned for the
first quarter," says Evans. "I'm going to take the computer
security industry to another level in 2011."
