“Danny has a wealth of expertise, coming from the military and

intelligence communities as well as leading large-scale, commercial

cyber threat intelligence operations. We are thrilled to have him lead

our Threat Research Team in delivering countermeasures and finished

intel to our products and customers,” said Nick Lantuh, President and

CEO, Fidelis Cybersecurity. “The threat intelligence derived by Danny

and the Team, along with the rich metadata, content and contextual

understanding that we capture from customer networks, cloud and

endpoints, are critical components to effectively hunt for threats

buried deep within your environment.”

understanding threat motives to better predict and prevent malicious

activities,” said Pickens. “This intelligence is required for leaders to

make informed and good, judgement-based decisions. It has a role in

every industry, but the expectation and abilities in cyber threat

intelligence have evolved dramatically in the past few years, moving way

beyond a threat feed or blocking at the perimeter based on static

indicators. Fidelis is at the forefront of this evolution. I am thrilled

to join the highly-experienced team here, where we have such strong

technology supporting us and vision for the future.”
