Dr. Jérôme Dossogne is a SANS Certified Instructor, founder of Torchlight, and cybersecurity advisor and architect with more than 20 years of experience spanning research and development, offensive security, penetration testing, governance, architecture review, incident response, and cyber education. He teaches SEC504: Hacker Tools, Techniques, and Incident Handling and SEC560: Enterprise Penetration Testing, bringing students a rare combination of practitioner depth, research rigor, and leadership experience drawn from both public and private sector environments across Europe and beyond. His ability to bridge strategic security management with hands-on offensive operations helps students understand not only how adversaries operate, but also how organizations can identify weaknesses, validate defenses, and build resilient security programs.
He is brilliant and possesses a wealth of experience and knowledge. His unique approach to explaining technical and complicated topics is to fully simplify them with daily-based examples and create connections with different fields.
Jerome has been great. Always with clear explanation and very helpful, providing assistance where needed, guiding where needed. Highly recommend him as instructor.
Jerome did great the whole week. Superb support trough out the whole CTF, making sure people enjoyed the event. He made sure that everyone could enjoy the CTF by creating an environment where learning and experimenting take precedence over winning.
In a short period of time frame, instructor has covered All topics. He also shared many important points based on his real-world experience. Instructor seems the best among all SANS team, he got tons of knowledge in cybersecurity. I suggest him for any classes. Thanks!
