May 8, 2018 – Claroty announced the addition of Dave Weinstein, who most recently served as the State of New Jersey’s Chief Technology Officer (CTO), to the position of Vice President of Threat Research. As cyberattacks against critical infrastructure and manufacturing concerns accelerate, Weinstein brings the balanced, global expertise to analyze risks and threats, not only from the perspective of actors and methods, but also the ramifications for policy and response.
Prior to being appointed CTO, where he led a cabinet-level agency of more than 600 technologists and was responsible for managing and securing a massive enterprise of infrastructure assets, Weinstein served as the state’s first cybersecurity advisor. During this time, he holds the distinction of having formed the nation’s first state-level information sharing and analysis organization (ISAO), the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell (NJCCIC), aimed at promoting shared and multisector situational awareness of cyberthreats and best practices. Prior to this, Weinstein served at the U.S. Cyber Command from 2010 to 2013, where he planned cyber operations in close coordination with interagency and international partners.
He also spent time as a cyber risk consultant at Deloitte, and currently serves as a non-resident Cybersecurity Policy Fellow at the Washington, D.C. -based think tank, New America.
Claroty’s cybersecurity platform provides visibility into industrial networks and combines secure remote access with continuous monitoring for threats and vulnerabilities – enabling industrial control system operators the ability to protect these important networks. The company now has production installations across six continents in nine vertical markets, including oil and gas, electric utilities, manufacturing, chemical, pharmaceutical, water, food and beverage, and mining, and strategic ICS partnerships with key players including Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric and Leidos (formerly SAIC).
