NSA selects new leads for key cybersecurity posts
David Imbordino, an NSA senior executive who most recently led its cybersecurity directorate in an acting capacity, has been named as its new chief. Bruce Jones, a career NSA technical and operational leader, as the new head of its Cybersecurity Collaboration Center.
The National Security Agency has selected a trio of digital security veterans to serve as the permanent leads of two of its major cybersecurity organizations, according to multiple people familiar with the matter.
David Imbordino, an NSA senior executive who most recently led its cybersecurity directorate in an acting capacity, has been named as its new chief — the first since its previous boss retired roughly one year ago. Holly Baroody, one of the NSA’s senior officials in the United Kingdom and a former top civilian at U.S. Cyber Command, will serve as his deputy.
Recorded Future News first reported earlier this year that the pair had been tapped to helm the outfit in acting roles.
