Dragos CEO and Co-Founder Robert M. Lee Named Security Executive of the Year by SC Media
Summary: Dragos announced on August 22, 2022 that CEO and Co-Founder Robert M. Lee won the 2022 SC Awards in Excellence for Security Executive of the Year, now in its 25th year. The release cites his work leading the Dragos Platform for ICS/OT asset identification and threat response, launching the free opt-in Neighborhood Keeper information-sharing network, and involvement in investigations of the 2015 and 2016 Ukraine grid attacks, the 2017 TRISIS attack on a Saudi petrochemical facility, and the 2021 Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack.
Key Takeaway: The release frames TRISIS as the first attempt to kill people through malicious software and the 2015 Ukraine attack as the first time an electric system was taken down by a cyberattack - both now part of the record a security leader is defending against.
