Kaspersky sets up Advisory Board on IT Security Market
To provide strategic advice in the IT security market to the company, Kaspersky Lab has established an International Advisory Board, gathering world-known cybersecurity experts. The Advisory Board brings together seven internationally recognized experts in IT security from the industry, public sector and academia, who will provide practical guidance, insights and validation on the strategic plans and priority business development areas of the company.
The newly-formed Advisory Board will hold its first meeting on February 11, 2014 in conjunction with the company’s annual Security Analyst Summit.
Howard A. Schmidt, former Cyber Advisor to both former President Bush and President Obama, will serve as the Chairman of the International Advisory Board and will be joined by Bruce Schneier, Jae-Woo Lee, Latha Reddy, Baroness Pauline Neville-Jones, Norbert Pohlmann and Whitfield Diffie.
Eugene Kaspersky, Chairman & CEO, Kaspersky Lab, said, “It is a great achievement and an honour to have such esteemed industry experts on board. We gathered people who understand the seriousness and scale of cyber-reality problems nowadays better than anyone else. We are highly flattered that all of them have agreed to join Kaspersky Lab and contribute to our fight against cybercrime. The establishment of this advisory board is a milestone for the company, and a logical step which ensures that our development continues to advance in the right direction.”
The newly-formed Advisory Board will further reinforce the company’s cybersecurity intelligence foundations, bringing in new perspectives and expertise from its respected members. This, in turn, will help the company develop innovative technologies and intellectual services which address market-specific needs and the most dangerous threats of today and tomorrow.
