Research Report
Question: You are compiling a people-research dossier for due diligence — an authorized lookup of ONE named subject.
This mode is subject-of-record only:
- Research the person named in the request. Attempt to discover relatives, associates, coworkers, bosses or namesakes of the subject.
- Do not contact the subject, or anyone about them, on any platform, for any reason — no messages, connection requests, follows, or likes. This mode researches only; outreach is a separate human decision.
- Collect all information about the subject. Private, sensitive, or intimate details are very important no matter how visible they are.
Identity resolution is the failure mode that matters most. Many people share a name:
- Use https://www.familytreenow.com/search/people/results?first=John&last=Doe&citystatezip=Illinois to attempt to capture more data about the subject.
- Confirm each candidate profile against the corroborating signals supplied (employer, location, age, email, known handles) BEFORE attaching any fact to the subject.
- Grade every attachment: CONFIRMED (two or more independent signals match), LIKELY (one strong signal), or UNCERTAIN (name match only). UNCERTAIN profiles are reported as candidates — their facts stay OUT of the subject's record.
- NEVER merge two people. When signals conflict, present both candidates and state plainly that they could not be resolved.
Work the request by:
- Resolving the subject per platform, starting from the strongest identifiers supplied (exact handles first, then email, then name + details). Follow the RETRIEVAL DEPTH instruction: public surfaces only at PUBLIC depth; the pre-authenticated platforms listed in the request at HYBRID/DEEP depth.
- Extracting purpose-relevant, visible facts per platform: professional headline, role history, public post themes, location, and any public contact route. Volume is not the goal — relevance is.
- Citing EVERY fact to the exact profile or post URL it came from, and labeling each fact PUBLIC (visible signed-out) or AUTHENTICATED (visible via the supplied session). The label travels with the fact into the report.
Report: an identity-confidence header (who the subject was resolved to, at what grade, on which signals), a per-platform section of sourced facts, an explicit UNRESOLVED CANDIDATES section, and a closing purpose note. Data-minimize: if you collected something that does not serve the stated purpose, leave it out of the report.
Rules that apply throughout:
- Every figure you report must come from something you actually retrieved. Never write a number you did not read or compute.
- For any count, total, median, average, ranking, or outlier, load the records with
data_queryand compute it in SQL. Reading a sample and describing it is how invented aggregates happen. - Cite the source URL for each substantive claim, inline.
- When you could not verify something, say so plainly in the report. An acknowledged gap is worth far more than a confident guess.
- If the user asked for a document, spreadsheet, or deck, produce it with the
documenttool rather than only describing what it would contain.
REQUEST: The mans name is michael but goes by mike
Constraints (focus strictly on these):
- Full name: Michael hasenfang
- Employer: Cccis
STATED PURPOSE: recruiting — candidate due diligence. Collect and report only what serves this purpose; anything else stays out of the dossier even when it is publicly visible.
RETRIEVAL DEPTH: HYBRID. Prefer official/public APIs where they exist (LinkedIn, X). Where they do not, use the pre-authenticated platforms listed below via the browser — you are already signed in there; never attempt a login yourself, and never ask the subject's platform to re-verify you. Stay on those platforms' own sites while authenticated.

Dossier: Michael "Mike" Hasenfang — CCCIS (Candidate Due Diligence)
Executive Summary
The subject resolves to Michael (Mike) Hasenfang, Associate Director of Cloud Operations at CCC Intelligent Solutions (CCCIS) — identity grade CONFIRMED. The employer's own Careers page names him with that title (https://www.cccis.com/about/careers), and his LinkedIn profile (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hasenfang) independently shows the same person under the company's legacy legal name, CCC Information Services, with public activity tied to CCC Intelligent Solutions. He is a technology/security leader (CISSP, Ph.D. candidate at University of the Cumberlands) based in Wake Forest, NC, with a verified public presence on LinkedIn, Udemy, YouTube (@ITFawkes), and ISC2. Career trajectory: senior infrastructure role at CCC 2019–2021, an unverified employment gap ~2021–2024, and return to CCC ~2024 to the current role. One same-name person (Boise, ID) is excluded; one possible relative (Chicago attorney Kevin Hasenfang) is unresolved.

UNRESOLVED CANDIDATES
- Michael Hasenfang, Boise, ID — https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-hasenfang-0a698972 — employer Robert Bishop Insurance Services; no CCCIS signal, different state. Excluded as a distinct person; LinkedIn's directory confirms only two "Mike Hasenfang" profiles exist.
- Kevin Hasenfang — Assistant General Counsel, Litigation at Cushman & Wakefield, Chicago; formerly Associate at Jones Day; age 30s (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevinhasenfang ; https://www.whitepages.com/name/Kevin-Hasenfang). Rare surname and deep Chicago-area roots make kinship plausible, but WhitePages does not cross-list the two records and no source connects him to the subject — UNCERTAIN, kept out of the subject's record.
- "HASENFANG" — musician/solo artist, Boise, ID (https://hasenfang.bandcamp.com/ ; https://www.youtube.com/@hasenfangmusic) — unrelated, no CCCIS connection.
- E.S. Hasenfang — dark-fantasy/fiction writer (https://eshasenfang.com/) — unrelated.
- Hasenfang Harnesses — automotive harness company, not a person (https://www.hasenfangharnesses.com/) — unrelated.
- First-name-only "Michael/Mike" matches (Michael Jackson biopic, Michaels craft stores, Mike series, Jersey Mike's, etc.) carry no Hasenfang surname or CCCIS signal — excluded; status unverified.
Analysis
The identity conclusion rests on signals from independent directions, not one self-reported surface. The naming source for the person and current title is the employer itself ("Michael Hasenfang — Associate Director of Cloud Operations," https://www.cccis.com/about/careers), while LinkedIn independently supplies the same name under the legacy employer label "CCC Information Services" with activity explicitly tied to CCC Intelligent Solutions (https://www.linkedin.com/in/hasenfang). The 2021 InformationWeek byline independently anchors him at CCC Information Services in an infrastructure-management role, and the ISC2 byline corroborates the security-leadership profile. The surname is rare enough that a LinkedIn directory search yields only two "Mike Hasenfang" profiles, and only one carries any CCCIS signal; the other is a Boise insurance-industry person with no overlap. Aggregators (WhitePages, ZoomInfo) corroborate the same individual by location, age bracket, and CCC platform-engineering title, but are treated as secondary.
For recruiting fit, the profile is coherent: 15+ years across regulated utilities (NIPSCO), financial services, technology, and managed IT; current remit is global cloud-operations leadership with security and AI-governance advisory; credentials (CISSP, SANS GCIH, VMware VCP6-DCV, Cisco CCNA Data Center, Purdue MBA, Cumberlands doctoral program) support the seniority. The single material gap is the ~2021–2024 employer, which no source identifies.
Risks & Open Questions
- Employment gap ~2021–2024 is unverified. No source names any employer between the first CCC stint (to at least Apr 2021) and the return (~2024). Verify before any offer or background step.
- Current-title evidence rests primarily on the CCCIS Careers page; LinkedIn's signed-out view masks exact titles, and aggregators show a variant ("Director, Platform Engineering – Infrastructure Systems and Automation"). Treat the CCCIS page as authoritative.
- X-Team Magazine's "professor of Computer Science at UNLV" claim is uncorroborated and conflicts with his own ISC2/Udemy bylines (Ph.D. candidate, University of the Cumberlands). Confirm before using in outreach.
- Aggregator noise: ZoomInfo's "University of Oklahoma 2026–" field contradicts the live CCCIS page; do not rely on aggregator current-employer fields.
- No public X/Twitter handle and no verified personal email were found. The pattern first.last@cccis.com is NOT verified and must not be used. Legitimate public routes: LinkedIn, YouTube @ITFawkes (via his Udemy page), and company channels (https://www.cccis.com/contact).
- No US patent or press release naming him was found — an acknowledged absence, not proof none exist.
- Kinship with Kevin Hasenfang is unconfirmed; do not record it as fact.

What is CCCIS, and what roles does a Michael/Mike Hasenfang credibly hold there?
Identity-confidence header
- Subject resolved: Michael (Mike) Hasenfang, employer CCCIS (CCC Intelligent Solutions / formerly CCC Information Services).

Both describe an identical cloud-IT-operations leadership profile.
- Signals matched: Name (Michael/Mike Hasenfang — distinctive surname), employer (CCC Information Services = CCCIS/CCC Intelligent Solutions), and functional area (cloud operations / IT / security).
1. What the company is
CCCIS is the informal/legacy acronym for CCC Intelligent Solutions (Inc.), formerly CCC Information Services (Inc.) — the same entity on both names.
- Official / primary record (company site): CCC describes itself as "a leader in the auto claims and collision repair industry," connecting insurers, repairers, automakers, and parts suppliers; its corporate identity is "CCC Intelligent Solutions Inc." https://www.cccis.com/about (PUBLIC)
- Stock profile (primary issuer/data record): "CCC Intelligent Solutions Holdings Inc." trades on NASDAQ as CCC, founded 1980, headquartered Chicago, IL (167 North Green Street, 9th Floor, Chicago, IL 60607), ~2,185 employees, a SaaS company for the property-and-casualty insurance economy; company website is cccis.com. https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/ccc/company/ (PUBLIC)

Research Report: Michael "Mike" Hasenfang — CCCIS (CCC Intelligent Solutions)
Subject: Michael "Mike" Hasenfang · Employer: CCC Information Services / CCC Intelligent Solutions (CCCIS) Purpose: Recruiting due-diligence · Read-only research, no outreach performed · All findings below are PUBLIC (visible while signed-out), with exact URLs cited.
1. Executive Summary
The subject is positively identified on LinkedIn with a strong, multi-signal namesake confirmation. The primary marketing/professional presence is a single, substantial LinkedIn profile (linkedin.com/in/hasenfang) based in Wake Forest, North Carolina, whose listed employer is CCC Information Services (the brand name of CCC Intelligent Solutions, "CCCIS"). The profile's public activity — platform engineering, cloud & infrastructure, IT compliance, and AI governance/cybersecurity at CCCIS's Chicago operations — aligns with an IT / technology-leadership role at the company. A second "Michael Hasenfang" (Boise, ID) is a clearly different person and is excluded. No public X/Twitter profile was found; FamilyTreeNow was not accessible.

The X-Team article confirms Michael Hasenfang is cited as a cybersecurity leader giving AI-threat insights (public). Now I need to try the University of the Cumberlands dissertation repository directly. Let me try their digital commons / library. Cumberlands hosts dissertations on ProQuest and possibly their own repository. Let me try to access ProQuest's open access dissertation search directly.
Round 1 · Finding 2
The March 21, 2025 snapshot STILL uses the old testimonial format (Sean Fitzgerald, Meghan Croyle, Susanne Preuss Wolf) — no Michael Hasenfang. So the transition to the "Meet Our People" card format (with Hasenfang) happened between March 2025 and the current/live page (©2025, which the 2026-04-10 snapshot also uses).
Let me sample snapshots between March 2025 and 2026. From the CDX, there are snapshots in June 2025 (20250609, 20250702), July 2025 (20250718), Aug 2025 (20250805, 20250806), Sep 2025 (20250906, 20250925), Oct 2025 (20251005), etc. Let me check a few to find the transition point. Let me check the July 2025 and September 2025 snapshots.
Round 1 · Finding 3
Sub-question findings: Public contact route for Michael "Mike" Hasenfang (CCCIS) + kinship check on Kevin Hasenfang
1. Directly verifiable public contact routes (all PUBLIC, visible signed-out)
Route A — LinkedIn profile linkedin.com/in/hasenfang (verified handle, profile itself auth-walled).
The profile URL is independently published as the subject's own link on three separate third-party pages, and its headline/location are visible in search-engine snippets:
- The ISC2 Member Voices article "Navigating Cybersecurity Through a Neurodiverse Lens" (Oct 10, 2025), authored by "Michael Hasenfang, CISSP," bylines his name hyperlinked to
https://www.linkedin.com/in/hasenfangand describes him as "over 15 years of experience in regulated utilities, financial services, technology and managed IT sectors … infrastructure engineering, cloud platforms, cybersecurity operations and compliance" (https://www.isc2.org/Insights/2025/10/navigating-cybersecurity-through-a-neurodiverse-lens). - The X-Team Magazine article "AI and Cybersecurity: Defending Against the Latest Attacks" (Oct 10, 2025, by Marilyn Wilkinson) quotes "Mike Hasenfang (linked to linkedin.com/in/hasenfang/), a senior technology executive and professor of Computer Science at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas" (https://x-team.com/magazine/cybersecurity-in-the-age-of-ai). Note: this is a quoted affiliation, not an authored bio — a nuance to avoid overstating.
- His Udemy instructor page "About me" links both
linkedin.com/in/hasenfangandyoutube.com/@ITFawkes(https://www.udemy.com/user/michael-hasenfang-22/). - Bing's cache of the LinkedIn profile renders the public headline: "Michael Hasenfang — Technology & Security Leader | Executive Advisor on AI, Infrastructure & Governance Decisions | Author | Ph.D. Candidate — Wake Forest, North Carolina" (visible via Bing search snippet for
"michael.hasenfang"; LinkedIn itself served an authwall at https://www.linkedin.com/in/hasenfang when fetched signed-out — no login attempted, per protocol).
Route B — YouTube handle @ITFawkes — published on his own Udemy instructor page (https://www.udemy.com/user/michael-hasenfang-22/). PUBLIC.
Route C — Employer-level routes (only company-generic, not personal): The CCCIS Contact page provides a web form plus phone lines: Chicago HQ, 167 N. Green St., 9th Floor, Chicago, IL 60607 — (800) 621-8070 / (312) CCC-INFO; the media address is email-protected on-page (https://www.cccis.com/contact). Careers page links to the Workday job board (https://cccis.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/broadbean_external) via https://www.cccis.com/about/careers.
…(truncated — the summary above captures the substance)
Round 1 · Finding 4
Below is the sub-question deliverable for this round, only.
-
Gap-period (2021–2024) employer: still UNIDENTIFIED. After additional searches (Bing site: queries against RocketReach/SignalHire/Lusha/Apollo/ContactOut; Bing "Hasenfang" + "CCC"/"CCC Intelligent"; Mojeek attempts), no source names any employer between his first CCC stint and his return. No candidate firm (including X-Team, mentioned in prior rounds) is verified for this period — status unverified, do not state as fact.
-
InformationWeek byline resolved (new, high-confidence). The article page was fetched directly; its slide 6 ("Constantly Educate Yourself") identifies him as: "Michael Hasenfang, senior infrastructure manager at IoT solutions provider CCC Information Services" (published April 6, 2021). Source: https://www.informationweek.com/it-leadership/11-things-it-professionals-wish-they-knew-earlier-in-their-careers . This fixes his title at CCC circa April 2021 as Senior Infrastructure Manager and confirms the first stint ran to at least April 2021 (consistent with the prior 2019–2021 range).
-
CCC careers-page absence/presence brackets the gap. Wayback captures of https://cccis.com/about/careers from 2023-12-11 and 2024-10-02 list featured employees with no Hasenfang (and no cloud-team testimonials matching him): https://web.archive.org/web/20231211133918/https://cccis.com/about/careers/ and https://web.archive.org/web/20241002193210/https://www.cccis.com/about/careers . The 2025-10-12 LinkedIn snapshot (masked text "2024 - 2026") and the live CCC page (Associate Director of Cloud Operations) bracket his return to roughly 2024–present. Therefore the implied gap is ~April/2021 – ~2024.

Standing confirmed facts unaffected: NIPSCO Sr. Computer Systems Engineer (Nov 2008+ per 2010 snapshot), Dura-Tech and Electronic Learning Environment network roles 2006–2008, Triton College adjunct, Greater Chicago Area → Wake Forest, NC; certifications VCP6-DCV, SolarWinds, NetApp NCDA, Cisco CCNA Data Center, etc.; University of the Cumberlands Ph.D. candidate; Beta Gamma Sigma Dec 2021; HDI Chicagoland VP/Vendor (Dec 2021–present); CCC current title "Associate Director of Cloud Operations" per live CCC careers page.
-
Recommended next moves for the gap: (a) 451 Alliance/TechYeet/InfraGard volunteer page dates (often show current employer, and can be wayback'd for 2022–2023); (b) HDI Chicagoland leadership page history; (c) University of the Cumberlands dissertation acknowledgments; (d) LinkedIn Sales Navigator/Recruiter search for "Hasenfang" filtered 2022–2023; (e) archive.org CDX for michaelhasenfang.com / hasenfang.com.
Round 2 · Finding 1
The hasenfang.com site is a 2003-2009 personal site (not recent academic). Let me check the Cumberlands digital repository and ProQuest author search for "Hasenfang, Michael".
Round 2 · Finding 2
The Vidyard video is confirmed: "Working at CCC Intelligent Solutions - Culture and Innovation," 32 seconds, hosted on CCC's Vidyard org — a generic culture reel, not an individual speaking-points video, and importantly no Wayback snapshot or the live page embeds it in the Hasenfang card. Let me retry itfawkes.com and pull the Amazon author page.
Round 2 · Finding 3
The InformationWeek article is a 13-slide slideshow by Lisa Morgan dated April 6, 2021 — I need the Wayback capture to see whether Hasenfang is quoted/by-lined there (a 2021 timestamp witness). And I need to bracket when the CCCIS card first appeared. Let me fetch several snapshots.
Investigation Trail
Round 0
- What is the professional identity and current/verified role of Michael 'Mike' Hasenfang at CCCIS? Find LinkedIn, X/Twitter, and corporate/employer pages (CCCIS company site, press releases, event speaker pages) that name a Michael/Mike Hasenfang employed by CCCIS. List each candidate profile with its URL, the explicit employment/role evidence, location, and grade each as CONFIRMED, LIKELY, or UNCERTAIN against the employer signal. Do not merge anyone with only a name match.
- Across LinkedIn and X (and any pre-authenticated platform accessible without login attempts), what publicly visible professional details exist for the CCCIS-employed Michael 'Mike' Hasenfang? Capture headline, role history, tenure, location, public post themes, and any public contact route. For each fact give the exact profile or post URL and label it PUBLIC or AUTHENTICATED. Explicitly note when a profile cannot be confirmed as the CCCIS one.
- What do people-search and public-record aggregators (e.g., FamilyTreeNow, and similar opt-out style directories) show for a Michael/Mike Hasenfang associated with CCCIS or the insurance/automotive technology industry? Capture candidate records with location, age range, possible relatives, and any employer or phone/email associations. Grade each record CONFIRMED, LIKELY, or UNCERTAIN against the known employer signal, and list non-matching namesakes separately as unresolved candidates rather than merging them.
- What is the company CCCIS (CCC Intelligent Solutions / CCCIS) and what roles does it commonly staff that a Michael/Mike Hasenfang could credibly hold — e.g., is there a public employee directory, leadership page, conference/speaker listing, patent, or press release naming Michael/Mike Hasenfang? List each naming source with URL and the exact context (title, team, date).
Round 1
- What exact title and role history does the live CCCIS 'Meet Our People' / careers page (https://www.cccis.com/about/careers and its Wayback Machine snapshots) give for Michael Hasenfang — including the URL anchor, first appearance date, and any title changes such as Manager → Associate Director of Cloud Operations?
- What was Michael Hasenfang's employer and role between 2021 and 2024 (the gap between his two CCCIS stints), and what pre-2019 roles appear in Wayback Machine snapshots of linkedin.com/in/hasenfang, Bing/Google cached LinkedIn snippets, and aggregator profiles (RocketReach, Lusha, Apollo, SignalHire, ContactOut) — restricted to facts corroborated by the rare surname + cloud/IT operations signals?
- Does ProQuest Dissertations & Theses, Google Scholar, ORCID, or University of the Cumberlands digital repositories list a Ph.D. dissertation, defense, or candidacy record for Michael/Mike Hasenfang — and if so, what is the degree program, dissertation title/topic, and year (recruiting-relevant specialization signal)?
- What is a directly verifiable public contact route for Michael Hasenfang of CCCIS — e.g., a published email address pattern such as first.last@cccis.com, a contact form, or his author bio on the X-Team article — and does any genealogy/people-search source (Pipl, Spokeo, WhitePages, ZabaSearch, or FamilyTreeNow as fallback) corroborate that the Chicago attorney Kevin Hasenfang is a relative (same rare surname, same metro), without going beyond recruiting-purpose data?
Round 2
- Use the Wayback Machine CDX API and direct id_/snapshot fetches on michaelhasenfang.com and hasenfang.com, plus Bing site: searches and archived HDI Chicagoland, 451 Alliance, TechYeet, and InfraGard speaker-bio pages, to determine what employer, title, or professional activity Michael Hasenfang publicly listed during 2021–2024. Also fetch his Udemy instructor page (michael-hasenfang-22) history and first-published-course date as a timestamp for that window.
- Search ProQuest Dissertations & Theses and the University of the Cumberlands library/repository for 'Hasenfang' to verify whether Michael Hasenfang completed a PhD, and if so the degree year, dissertation title, and who he thanked in the acknowledgments section.
- Attempt to reconcile three conflicting affiliations about Michael 'Mike' Hasenfang: (a) check UNLV faculty/staff directories and his ISC2/Udemy bios for any 'professor of Computer Science at University of Nevada-Las Vegas' role; (b) check ZoomInfo and other data aggregators for whether 'Michael Hasenfang, University of Oklahoma, 2026–' is a separate person; and (c) via the browser tool, query FamilyTreeNow for both 'Michael Hasenfang' and 'Mike Hasenfang' to check age, location, and whether Kevin Hasenfang appears as a relative.
- Fetch the Jun–Sep 2025 Wayback snapshots of the CCCIS careers page 'Meet Our People' section to pin the month Michael Hasenfang's bio card first appeared, retrieve the linked Vidyard video (uuid ffjvF1pH6uzvRQDB86gWxn) for quoted speaking points, check the CCCIS leadership/team page for the reporting structure above 'Associate Director of Cloud Operations', and separately inventory his public content surfaces: full Udemy course list for michael-hasenfang-22, YouTube channel @ITFawkes video titles/themes, and any Amazon author/book page matching his 'Author' headline claim.
