Chris Selfors is the Principal Analyst at CyberMKE, a Milwaukee-based cybersecurity consultancy serving small and medium businesses across Wisconsin. He leads engagements across digital forensics and incident response (DFIR), penetration testing, insider threat investigations, and security training.
Background
Chris holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where he built the technical foundation that underpins his work today. His practice combines hands-on security engineering with an emphasis on making enterprise-grade practices accessible and affordable for the SMB market that most firms overlook.
Focus Areas
- Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) – Investigation, containment, and recovery from active security incidents, plus post-incident evidence preservation.
- Penetration Testing – Authorized offensive assessments that map real attacker paths through a client’s systems before a real attacker finds them.
- Insider Threat Investigations – Discreet, evidence-driven inquiries when the risk is coming from inside the organization.
- Security Training – Classroom and hands-on training for teams that want to build durable in-house capability, not just check a compliance box.
- Detection Engineering – Custom Sigma, YARA, and KQL detections mapped to the attack techniques that actually matter for the client’s stack.
- Physical Security – Assessments and locksmith services covering the parts of the attack surface that don’t live inside a server.
Community and Memberships
- ISSA Milwaukee – Instructor and contributor with the Milwaukee chapter of the Information Systems Security Association, delivering workshops and hands-on classes for local security professionals.
- Wisconsin InfraGard – Member of the FBI-affiliated public-private partnership focused on critical infrastructure protection in Wisconsin.
- Techquity (Inpower) – Lead Digital Navigator, running a device distribution and digital literacy program that brings refurbished laptops and technology skills to Milwaukee residents.
Working With CyberMKE
