A network of cybersecurity experts working from their homes in South Mississippi are on the hunt for cyber threats IN a multitude of industry environments.

Rebekah Wilke, who works from her Bay St. Louis home, heads a virtual security operations center for Raytheon Foreground Security that provides advance cyber monitoring, threat hunting and other professional services.

“Providing protection from targeted attacks requires a certain level of expertise and that’s what we’re building out here in Mississippi,” she said.
​
Wilke and her team in Mississippi and other locations are working “24/7, 365” so their clients in industries such as financial services and utilities won’t get hacked by cybercriminals.

The Mississippi State Senior Olympics games were held April 9 - May 21 on the coast (most events taking place in Gulfport/Biloxi area).  Waveland resident John Impson ran the 50, 100 and 200 meter sprints on May 21st, coming in first and winning gold in each of the three events. He also broke 16 seconds in the 100 meter with a time of 15.99. In qualifying meets like this one, a camera is used to record precise times.

Impson runs in the men's 75-79 age group, while his running partner, Inez Kelleher, runs the same events, but in the women's 60-64 age group. She also placed first in each event. They both qualified to represent MS in the 2017 National Senior Olympics which will be in Birmingham next year. Kudos to both!
