Formerly in military and law enforcement service, Mr. Jones is a popular talk show guest with 15 appearances on national & regional programming and news specials. He has also been the subject of numerous domestic and international newspaper and magazine articles. He has been the technical consultant on three major Hollywood films which contained scenes depicting electronic surveillance.

He is the "Moderator" of the Internet's daily "Surveillance List Forum",a group of 7500 surveillance professionals from 74 countries around the world. He maintains two web sites on the internet known as "The Codex" (which was voted one of the top "Hacker & Crypto Rebel" sites on the internet by PC World) and "SpyKing's Hideaway" ... Both sites are considered a "must read" for those concerned with electronic surveillance, communications privacy & computer security.

Mr. Jones' specialty is computer security, monitoring and surveillance. He can give "live" demonstrations of how "Hackers" can enter a computer system and steal proprietary data compromising institutional and facility security. He accomplishes this by using specialized software and techniques he created for government use.
