Gregory D. Evans Lies About Being CISSP

Wed Jun 23 17:36:26 CDT 2010

In May 2009, LIGATT Security International filed an Issuer's Initial Disclosure Statement with OTCMarkets to fulfill requirements for listing LGTT on the Pink Sheets. In that document, LaKesha Wilson (President and COO of LIGATT) states that Gregory Evans has the following "affiliations": Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) and Cisco Certified Network Professional (CCNP). It has already been proven that Evans does not hold a CEH certification.

Thanks to Wim Remes, we now have validation that Evans does not hold a CISSP certification either. While his name did not appear on the ISC^2 portal, Remes wanted to verify the claim in case there was an omission or privacy feature that did not list all CISSP holders. The following mails from ISC^2 confirmed his suspicion.

After the leak of Evans' e-mails, we see that Dorsey Morrow, General Counsel for ISC^2 contacted Evans about his use of the CISSP mark. Evans denied he used it, despite the evidence being clear and to the contrary. Evans tries to claim affiliation, but quotes a purchase order from ISACA, not ISC^2.
