Honestly, try to minimize all the security positions possibly make it into one post... Go more in depth about your computer experience... If your applying for an it position they are not going to want to know about security

I keep the security but I was wondering what type of position are you going for? I would try incorporate in your resume how your security exp. help with the position you are seeking.

I'd remove the references section because if they want references they will ask. I'd also remove the security guard certifications from the resume as that's not relevant relevant to an IT position. You are applying for an IT job I assume?
