I n this issue, we shine a light on Brother Steven Rodrigo, ΔΔ1160. Bother Rodrigo kicked off our 2006-08 capital campaign with a donation of $6,000 to replace the decades-old slate walkway leading up to the chapter house. His gift had to be demolished in 2016 by the university to install a new natural gas pipeline running across a right-of-way through our property. After installation, the university reinstalled the walkway, at its expense, as originally designed. Brother Rodrigo is a seasoned cybersecurity professional with over three decades of experience supporting the U.S. Intelligence Community and Department of Defense. He began his journey at Penn State University, where he studied from 1983 to 1987 and became a brother of Sigma Nu in the fall of 1986. After college, Brother Rodrigo served for 12 years in the U.S. Navy in the field of Naval Intelligence. During his military career, he supported numerous global operations supporting national defense missions and objectives. His distinguished service earned him the Defense Meritorious Service Medal, Joint Service Commendation Medal (with Oak Leaf Cluster), Joint Service Achievement Medal, Navy Achievement Medal, and multiple campaign and service awards. After leaving active duty in 1999, Steve transitioned into the private sector, where he has continued to serve the nation as a defense contractor and cybersecurity expert. Over the years, he has played a pivotal role in shaping federal cybersecurity policy, contributing to foundational documents such as a policy document that establishes risk management, certification, and accreditation for information technology systems within the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC) and key NIST publications including the guide used to conduct federal security risk assessments. Brother Rodrigo was also instrumental in the initial security assessment of Commercial Cloud Services (C2S)—the Intelligence Community's first classified enterprise cloud environment— marking a milestone in federal cloud security innovation. Today, Brother Rodrigo works as a Cloud Security Architect at L3Harris, where he continues to drive secure digital transformation for mission-critical systems. He is married to Corinne Rodrigo, who is currently the Chief Security Architect at the Options Clearing Corporation, and the couple lives in Melbourne Beach, Florida.
