Vice president and Chief Security Officer (CSO) at AVANGRID, Brian Harrell, joins the Advisory Board at threat intelligence company LookingGlass.

Harrell to its Advisory Board brings extensive acumen and experience spanning the convergence between cyber and physical security, insider threat, and infrastructure security across organizations in both the government and private sector.

At AVANGRID, an energy company with assets and operations in 24 states, Harrell is responsible for physical and cybersecurity, security compliance, enterprise risk governance, and fire protection units. In 2018, he was appointed by the President of the United States to serve as the sixth Assistant Secretary for Infrastructure Protection at the Department of Homeland Security. Additionally, he served as the first Assistant Director for Infrastructure Security at the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

“I’ve seen firsthand this company’s products and services work in real time to help mitigate threats and provide early warning of malicious activity and look forward to offering thought leadership to a proven organization dedicated to helping critical infrastructure companies safeguard their systems and infrastructure,” added Harrell.

ON DEMAND: Business-impacting events such as severe weather, man-made disasters, and supply chain disruption are increasing in frequency and making impacts around the globe.

In today's rapidly evolving security landscape, organizations face an ever-growing array of disruptive events, security threats and risks. Traditional reactive approaches to security intelligence often leave businesses vulnerable and ill-prepared to anticipate and mitigate emerging threats that could impact the safety of their people, facilities or operations.
