My name is Rick Floyd and I am from Greenville SC. I live in Travelers Rest SC, and enjoy running and cycling on the Swamp Rabbit Trail.
I have been employed with the Greenville County School District since September 1, 2011. I work in Information Security within the ETS department, located at M.T. Anderson.
I have over 20 year’s law enforcement experience, retiring from the Greenville City Police Department in 2011. While with the Greenville City Police Department, I was over internet/computer crimes, being responsible for investigating all electronic related crimes. I was extensively trained in computer forensic investigations in 2004 by the Federal Government in Washington DC. After being trained in computer forensics, I became a member of the local U.S. Customs (ICE) task force where I investigated child pornography cases, and conducted computer forensic investigations. I was also a member of the S.C. Attorney General Internet Crimes Against Children task force (ICAC), where I investigated internet crimes against children by chatting online as an underage child, and investigated online criminal solicitation/enticement cases involving underage children.
I was also responsible for community training on internet safety. I conduct internet safety presentations for school children, staff, parents, and community organization's. These presentations are age appropriate and cover dangers of the internet, cyberbullying and the dangers and possible repercussions of sending inappropriate images over a computer or cell phone.
