Omar Todd is a cyber security expert with several certifications and over twenty years of experience in the information technology field. Todd looked to set himself apart by expanding his talent and coupling his passion for IT with the certifications needed to prove to companies he would be an asset to their organization. In order to become a Certified Information Security Systems Professional (CISSP), one must have a minimum of five years of experience working experience in a full-time, paid position in at least two of the 8 areas of the ISC approved list of fields. Candidates may petition to waiver one year of experience if they have obtained a four year college degree. Those who lack the experience have the option of sitting for the CISSP exam and gaining Associate status. This allows the CISSP candidate six years to obtain the required experience in order to officially become a Certified Information Security Systems Professional.
Once the experience has been obtained and the CISSP exam passed, candidates must complete the endorsement process and go about maintaining their CISSP status throughout their careers. This requires candidates to stay current in information technology through a recertification process that is required every three years. Continuing education credits are required each year to maintain certification as well as paying an annual maintenance fee, and abiding by the code of ethics. Professionals like Omar Todd are essential to the field of cyber security and information technology. Having a passion for the industry and the talent to provide unique skills and innovation help to advance the field of technology as well as provide a standard by which students entering the field can hope to emulate. Omar Todd is an IT specialist who has found a particular interest in the growing use of drones in everyday life. With drone sales more than doubling in 2015, the many uses of drones have peaked the interests of tech lovers and casual observers alike. Drones can, and are, used for a wide variety of both professional and recreational practices around the world.
Drones are being used for some of the noblest of activities that reach beyond the scope of human ability. For instance, Devon and Cornwall police in the UK have been using the help of drones that are fitted with small HD cameras in order to monitor traffic and accidents, capture crime scene information and photos, and search for missing persons. Many of these activities that may have once been completed by manned helicopters can now more easily be taken on through the use of drones and footage that can be viewed by police out of harm's way. Thermal vision technology in some drones have recently helped in the capturing of rhino poachers and "mail delivery" drones have made the possibility of "same day delivery" for some customers a possibility. Those in the field of technology have seen the outpouring of interest in new drone capabilities and have been able to react accordingly, developing new inspiring ways to use this type of exciting gadget. For experts such as Omar Todd, who is well versed in security matters as well as advancing technology, keeping drones safe and as a tool for advancement and enterprise is key in pushing forward in this new way of innovation.

Omar Todd, the Global Technical Director who also serves as Chief Technology Officer and Chief Information Officer of SSCS, believes in the mission of the organization and works to make a difference in marine conservation on a large scale.
The organization was founded with the intent of putting an end to the destruction of marine habitats and wildlife to protect the ecosystems and species for the future. With leaders such as Omar Todd at the helm who are experts in the field of technology, Sea Shepherd is able to use innovative and cutting edge methods in order to investigate, properly document, and take action in order to confront and act when needed. Through safeguarding the delicate balance of ocean ecosystems, SSCS works to ensure the survival of marine life for generations to come. The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society needs your help! Taking care of the planet is not a one man job, and every person can do his or her part to ensure marine life receives the proper attention and care it deserves. Education is one simple way to spread the word of the need to lessen mankind’s carbon footprint and to provide knowledge of the dire situation the planet is facing in regard to coral reefs and marine life in general. Another way to lend a helping hand to Sea Shepherd is volunteering your time and talent! There are two great ways to volunteer with SCSS through opportunities both onshore and offshore. The obstacles facing the onshore crews are immense. Recruiting highly motivated, passionate volunteers for no pay other than the satisfaction of completing this work to maintain the environment is not always easy. If you are compelled to fight for the world's oceans and all of its creatures including fish, sea birds, dolphins, and whales an offshore position with Sea Shepherd may be for you! Onshore volunteer opportunities are available as well. Volunteers are one of the organization's most valued assets, as nothing would be accomplished without their dedication and drive. Onshore volunteer needs include activities to and fundraisers that reach out into the community to obtain donations and supplies, distribute information, and among many other things, conduct research needed to competently complete the tasks needed. Omar Todd has helped to propel the Sea Shepherd's initiatives both onshore and offshore. These efforts make a difference in not only conserving marine life but also the perception the public has for their actions and their relevancy in ocean conservation. Providing reliable information to the public allows those who may not be in touch with conservation efforts a mean to stay informed and provide assistance in whatever way they are able and willing.
