ABOUT CYRUS ROBINSON
Cybersecurity executive with 20+ years of experience leading security operations, large‑scale incident response, and technical teams across the Department of Defense, healthcare, and the managed security services sector. I’ve built and scaled high‑performance SOC organizations, led complex IR engagements including nation‑state intrusions, and developed enterprise security programs aligned to NIST, CMMC, SOC 2, and HIPAA.My career began in the U.S. Air Force at the DoD Cyber Crime Center, supporting federal investigations and advancing forensic testing and evaluation. I later served as a DoD contractor in JWICS system administration and enterprise change management before moving into healthcare as an Information Security Officer and IT Director.In the private sector, I’ve led the transformation of security operations from small teams into mature 24x7x365 MSSP capabilities, developing talent pipelines, modernizing detection and response tooling, and driving measurable service expansion. I also played a key role in standing up and later reintegrating an IR subsidiary as part of strategic positioning for a successful M&A process with C3 Integrated Solutions.I hold multiple industry certifications and a Master of Science in Information Security & Assurance, and I’m passionate about building resilient security teams, improving operational excellence, and guiding organizations through high‑stakes cyber challenges and organizational change.
