Jim's decades of federal knowledge, layered with our Information Security Services team's experience and skill, will allow us to give federal agencies the full support they need when it comes to strengthening their security posture and building resilience."

"Over the past few years, we've significantly increased our focus on security solutions for the federal government and state agencies, including becoming a designated Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contractor," said Steven Burns, President & COO of Bulletproof. "Jim is a true powerhouse when it comes to the federal security sector and as such, has developed strong relationships with many key members of government. Having him on our team will propel Bulletproof even further as a leader in this space."
