As you can see I enjoy writing about investigation and information security. I like to share with others the excitement concerning both fields. I believe one of the best defenses we can muster in this complex, fast-paced world is researching topics and ideas relevant to the role information plays in our lives.
I bring thirteen years experience as a private and legal investigator. In addition, I've taught Information Security sixteen years at the collegiate and university levels. My Masters degree is in Network Security from Capitol Technology University. I hold the CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) from ISC2. Currently, I am a faculty member at Western Governors University in the School of Technology instructing in Information Security.
I hope that you will enjoy my earlier book: HOW TO DO FINANCIAL ASSET INVESTIGATIONS (Fifth Edition) in hard copy (2018). And my newest release in Kindle Edition KEEPING THE LEOPARD AT BAY: DIGITAL SAFETY IN THE AGE OF AI, was just published in August 2026. LEOPARD offers advice on guarding your personal data as AI moves into our daily lives.
Note: If you see Ronald L. Mendell associated with two books on sports, one on Football and one on Basketball, those belong to another author with the same name.
