Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 1, 2022) – Scryb Inc. (CSE: SCYB) (OTCQB: SCYRF) (FSE: EIY) (“Scryb” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Nicolas Chaillan1, former Chief Architect for Cyber.gov of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Chief Software Officer for the U.S. Air Force and Space Force, as a Special Advisor to the Company.
Mr. Chaillan comes to the Company with over 22 years of international technology, entrepreneurial and management experience spanning both public and private sectors. While at DHS, he designed Cyber.gov, the new robust, innovative and holistic ‘.gov’ cybersecurity architecture that sought to mitigate cyber threats. Chaillan created and deployed the largest Zero Trust implementation in the U.S government and brought DevSecOps DoD-wide, saving 100-years of time within 18 months and billions of taxpayer money. Nicolas has extensive experience securing complex networks and driving innovative digital transformation.
“I was impressed by Cybeats’ technology right away. Delivering an integrated security platform to secure and protect high-valued connected devices is no easy feat. Cybeats unique approach allows device manufacturers to develop, bake-in security and maintain secure and protected devices in a timely and cost-efficient manner,” said Nicolas Chaillan, Special Advisor.
“Working with the top experts of the ever-changing cybersecurity landscape is vital to our vision of providing a holistic approach to security and software supply chain security,” said Yoav Raiter, CEO, Scryb & Cybeats. “Nicolas is not only a leader in cybersecurity, he is one of few to have led U.S. government departments responsible for IT operations, security, and compliance, having extensive experience and success in both private and public sectors. His knowledge and insight to the cybersecurity landscape will be invaluable for Cybeats and our continued pursuit of significantly reducing the threat of cyber attacks. On behalf of the Scryb and Cybeats teams, I welcome Nicolas and look forward to working on future projects with him.”
At the U.S. Air Force, Mr. Chaillan was responsible for establishing force-wide DevSecOps capabilities and best practices, including continuous Authority to Operate processes and faster streamlined technology adoption.
Recent Media Appearances on Cybersecurity
On February 25, 2022, Mr. Chaillan, a recurring guest of Fox News, joined to discuss cybersecurity dynamics amidst the escalating war in Ukraine. Nicolas outlined key strategies and focuses for the U.S. in prevention and mitigation of cyber risks that extend beyond just the Ukrainian region. Efforts to de-escalate must include an acute awareness and substantial push to fortify the U.S. cybersecurity defenses of its critical infrastructure.
Further to the emphasis on cyber defence of critical infrastructure, European Central Bank warned several euro-zone banking institutions to step up their cyberattack defenses amid the escalating Russia-Ukraine war2. In some cases, state-sponsored cyber operations against critical infrastructure organizations have specifically targeted operational technology and industrial control systems networks with destructive malware3. The CSA notes that state-sponsored advanced persistent threat (APT) actors have also demonstrated sophisticated tradecraft and cyber capabilities by compromising third-party infrastructure and software, or developing and deploying custom malware. As Nicolas has discussed publicly for many years, Cyberspace has become one of the key components of geopolitics. If the current Russia-Ukraine war continues to escalate, one can expect Russian cyber threats to increase in operation.
