BOSTON (PRWEB)
January 29, 2020
Cybereason, creators of the leading Cyber Defense Platform, today announced that David Kris has joined the company as a strategic advisor. In his role on the company’s Advisory Board, Kris will provide the company with strategic advice and help accelerate the company’s go-to-market strategy.
Kris is a former Department of Justice official who held senior positions in the George W. Bush and Obama administrations. He founded Culper Partners LLC in 2017 and is an expert in intelligence, law enforcement and security issues. He has more than 25 years of experience in government, the private sector and academia. Kris is co-author of the leading treatise in the field, National Security Investigations and Prosecutions, as well as the author of several other articles and blog posts. He is a member of the board of directors and a Contributing Editor of the Lawfareblog, adjunct professor at the University of Washington Law School, and a University Affiliate at Georgetown University.
“We are thrilled that David is joining our highly regarded group of board advisors offering strategic advice and support to the company during our rapid global expansion. David brings a unique perspective and understanding of cybersecurity, data and privacy issues and his nearly three-decade career in DC will be invaluable in the coming months,” said Lior Div, CEO and Co-founder, Cybereason.
Kris previously served as the General Counsel of Intellectual Ventures for six years starting in 2011. He was appointed by the President and confirmed by the US Senate as the Assistant Attorney General for National Security in the U.S. Department of Justice from 2009-2011. While at Time Warner from 2003-2009, Kris served as Deputy General Counsel and Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer. From 2000-2003, he served as Associate Deputy Attorney General for National Security within the U.S. Department of Justice. He currently advises two elements of the U.S. Intelligence Community and serves as an amicus curiae to the two Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Courts.
“Cybereason is one of the hottest cybersecurity companies in the world and I’m looking forward to being part of an impressive group of industry stalwarts and visionaries on their advisory board. It’s no coincidence that Cybereason’s meteoric rise is coming at a time when more and more targeted, state-sponsors actors are carrying out sophisticated attacks against the global 1,000 companies and software and services needed to combat risks are offered by the company,” said Kris.
Kris is the recipient of numerous awards and medals, including the National Intelligence Superior Service Medal, the Office of the Secretary of Defense Medal for Exceptional Public Service, the CIA Agency Seal Medal, the Department of Justice Edmund J. Randolph Award, and on two occasions the Attorney General’s Award for Exceptional Service, the Department of Justice’s highest honor.
