COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., June 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- root9B, a root9B Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: RTNB) company and leading provider of advanced cybersecurity products and services, announced that General Michael Hayden has joined the company's Advisory Board.
General Hayden is a retired four-star general who served as director of the Central Intelligence Agency (2006-2009) and the National Security Agency (1999-2005). As head of the country's premier intelligence agencies, he was on the frontline of global change, the war on terrorism and the growing cyber challenge. In addition to leading the CIA and NSA, General Hayden was the country's first principal deputy director of national intelligence and the highest-ranking military intelligence officer in the country. General Hayden is currently a principal at The Chertoff Group and a distinguished visiting professor at the George Mason University Schar School of Policy and Government.
root9B is recognized as a leader and pioneer in the Manned Information Security and Adversary Pursuit Operations HUNT market and was recently named the #1 company on the Cybersecurity 500 for the fifth consecutive quarter.
"The team at root9B, starting with Eric Hipkins, John Harbaugh and Mike Morris, is unparalleled in the industry," said General Hayden. "Today's cyber warfare needs a unique solution which the team at root9B is uniquely qualified to offer. I look forward to being a part of this team moving forward."
root9B's Chief Executive Officer Eric Hipkins is an accomplished Cyber, Intelligence and Cryptology professional with more than 25 years of specialty experience in advanced cyber and technical intelligence operations. He is a military veteran with an extensive background across the Department of Defense, Intelligence and Commercial community and is a member of the newly formed Homeland Security Advisory Council's Cybersecurity subcommittee. Chief Operating Officer John Harbaugh is a U.S. military veteran and former Senior Executive in the federal government. He is a DoD certified Master-level technician with expert skills in cyber defense and network security operation. Chief Technology Officer Michael Morris is also a U.S. military veteran, specializing in intelligence operations in the areas of advanced Offensive and Defensive Cyber operations, tactics, tool development and advanced training curriculum.
"General Hayden's long history in intelligence and as a mentor to and leader of many members of our team in their national defense and security careers makes his appointment to our advisory board a natural fit," said Mr. Hipkins, who is also Chief Executive Officer of root9B Holdings. "Having the ability to rely on General Hayden's expertise will further help differentiate root9B from its cybersecurity competitors."
