Kudos to my colleague Lynn DeCourcey for her recent interview on  ExecutiveBiz.com!

Lynn is NJVC vice president and general manager, cyber security. She oversees all aspects of the company’s cyber security business unit, including the creation of technically advanced and state-of-the-art cyber innovations, solutions and strategies to develop new business and financial performance. In her online interview, she discusses how her team is bringing innovation to the marketplace everyday.

Before undertaking this new role in the company, Ms. DeCourcey was Deputy Director, Cyber Security, for one of the company’s Intelligence Community customers. She led the effort to support the most successful Defense Information Systems Agency Command Cyber Readiness Inspection in the history of that particular contract. Under her leadership, Ms. DeCourcey’s team also developed the NJVC “Cyber Dashboard”—a “single-view” threat and vulnerability situational awareness console. The Cyber Dashboard recently was honored as the winner of the 2011 (ISC)² Government Information Security Leadership Awards Team Award.

The NJVC Cyber Dashboard facilitates situational awareness for decision makers to defend against the proliferation and increasing sophistication of cyber threats by visualizing, analyzing and generating reports from the aggregated and correlated data feeds from strategically placed sensors.
 
This dashboard is:
  • Customizable
  • Enterprise capable
  • Modified for each stakeholder
  • User focused
Each active device or data feed is interrogated for input, and proceeds to:
  • Aggregate data for display
  • Manage background algorithms
  • Provide automated updates
ExecutiveBiz.com is dedicated to covering the government contracting sector from the perspective of the executive. Our writers and researchers follow the political and business trends associated with contracting to find those who matter most to those who make decisions.
