EY Announces Robert M. Lee of Dragos Inc. as an Entrepreneur of the Year® 2022 Mid-Atlantic Winner
Summary: Ernst & Young LLP named Robert M. Lee, CEO and co-founder of Dragos Inc., an Entrepreneur of the Year 2022 Mid-Atlantic winner, selected by an independent panel of judges on entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, growth, and impact. Lee, who helped lead the investigation into the 2015 attack on Ukraine's power grid and worked on the 2016 Ukraine electric system attack, the 2017 TRISIS attack on a Saudi petrochemical facility, and the 2021 Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack, serves on the Department of Energy's Electricity Advisory Committee and as vice chair of DOE's Grid Resilience for National Security Subcommittee.
Key Takeaway: The person honored for building an OT security company is the same one who investigated TRISIS at a Saudi petrochemical plant and Colonial Pipeline - a reminder that the incidents shaping industrial defense were studied by a small group of practitioners, not learned from a vendor brochure.
