About Jérôme
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.
