Subject: Letter of Recommendation for Mr. Yesihake Abraha
Dear Madame/Sir:
I am giving my highest recommendation to Mr. Yesihake Abraha. He has performed well as a
cybersecurity student, as a member and an assistant coach for my university’s Cyber Competition Team,
and as a consultant to APS Global. He is a smart, disciplined, effective, and trustworthy.
Yesihake was an excellent student in my Cybersecurity classes and excelled in the class room and on
practical exercises. His high performance qualified him to be a manager in Capitol’s Cyber Battle Lab,
where he assisted undergraduate and graduate students with hands-on cybersecurity lab exercises using
Virtual Machines for Windows/Windows Server, Linux, Unix, and Wireless Networking. His knowledge
and good customer-service skills earned him many compliments. The fact that a freshman/sophomore
student has the skills to assist Graduate students from industry and government tells you a lot about
Yesihake’s abilities.
He was one of the first freshman students selected to be part of Capitol’s Cyber Competition Team in
2015, where he helped Capitol advance from the regional qualified to the finals for the Mid-Atlantic
Collegiate Defense Competition (MACCDC) held at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL).
He is now an Assistant Coach for our team, performing research and configuring exercises with VMWare
& ESXi/vSphere.
Yesihake is working as a consultant to APS Global. He was responsible for installing VMWare’s ESXi
product on servers at Northern Virginia Community College (NVCC) to support their cybersecurity
program. On assignment to Capitol, he assisted in the engineering, configuration, and setup of blade
servers and the ESXi-based Capitol Cyber Cloud to support lab exercises and Cyber Competitions. He
recently integrated Active Directory into the solution and is planning network and system upgrades.
He is a great student, coach, and employee. If you’d like to know more please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Richard H. Hansen
CEO, APS Global llc
Professor of Cybersecurity, Capitol Technology University
