GreyNoise Intelligence attracts top cyber defense leaders. GreyNoise Intelligence Sep 23, 2026, 09:59 ET Four Senior Hires Deepen Federal and National Security Expertise WASHINGTON, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - GreyNoise Intelligence, the cybersecurity company that empowers defenders with real-time threat data about attacks at the network edge, today announced four senior hires to further the company's work with U.S. and allied government agencies. "The internet-facing infrastructure of government and critical infrastructure networks are constantly being attacked," said Ash Devata, CEO, GreyNoise Intelligence. "Edge devices like routers, VPNs, firewalls, and other internet-facing embedded systems cannot run agents and produce minimal telemetry. Adversaries are leveraging AI to exploit these systems within minutes of a vulnerability being discovered. Defenders need to understand this activity the moment it happens, but traditional detection & response capabilities do not extend to most edge devices. Andrew, Mark, Steve, and Joe deeply understand the role that real-time threat intelligence plays in defending the network edge against AI-powered threats. With the addition of these new leaders to GreyNoise, we are deepening our commitment to protecting the national security missions of the United States and our allies." * Andrew Thompson, Senior Vice President of Adversary Operations. Thompson joins GreyNoise from Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG), where he was Head of Global Signals Operations. His teams fused intelligence from Mandiant intrusion investigations, security operations, product telemetry, commercial vendors, partners, and sensitive technical and human-derived access to defend Google, its users, and its customers. Before that, he served as a United States Marine in ground combat, counterintelligence, human intelligence, and cyberspace operations against terrorist and foreign intelligence entities. * Mark Mager, Head of Adversary Engagement. Mager previously led endpoint security research teams and built foundational endpoint detection and response capabilities at Elastic and Endgame. Prior to his work in the private sector, Mager led the research and development of advanced computer network operations tools at Battelle and Lockheed Martin and supported clients throughout the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area as a reverse engineering subject matter expert. * Steve Miller, Principal Threat Researcher. Miller has been working at the nexus of incident response, detection engineering, and threat intelligence for more than two decades. As AI Threats Mission Lead at Google Threat Intelligence Group, he built programs and teams to track AI threat activity and defend GenAI platforms. Prior to that, Miller held senior threat intelligence positions at Microsoft and Mandiant, where he worked on threat tracking and attribution, detection research, and product design. He previously worked as a Digital Forensics Researcher for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, a Security Engineer for Cornell University, and he served in the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command as a program manager at the National Security Agency. * Joe Lampert, Director, National Security Solutions. A retired U.S. Army Major with more than 20 years of service, Lampert held intelligence and cyber warfare assignments supporting U.S. Cyber Command and U.S. Strategic Command. Prior to joining GreyNoise, he served as Senior Account Director at Recorded Future, where he was named Recorded Future's Global Account Manager of the Year in 2024 and Public Sector Account Executive of the Year in 2022. He has also held roles at the U.S. Army Reserve, Splunk, EY, and Verizon supporting national security partnerships across the Intelligence Community, USCYBERCOM, the Department of War, and the FBI. At EY, he helped design and operationalize cyber threat intelligence programs for manufacturing and financial services clients. The additions come as GreyNoise rapidly expands its government business, which continues to see strong traction. More than 400 government agencies across the Five Eyes, NATO, and allied nations use GreyNoise to identify and understand attacks on edge systems, relying on its threat data to protect critical infrastructure, safeguard military readiness, and secure the digital supply chain. About GreyNoise Intelligence GreyNoise empowers the security teams of enterprises and governments to act with speed and confidence by providing fresh, verifiable threat intelligence about systems at the network edge. This allows security teams to improve the efficacy of their security operations, perform in-depth investigations and threat hunts, and focus on the most critical threats to their networks. The GreyNoise Global Observation Grid observes and analyzes threat actor campaigns at global scale and shares this intelligence with customers in real-time.

GreyNoise Intelligence has appointed four senior executives to strengthen its federal and national security capabilities. The Washington-based cybersecurity company provides real-time threat data about attacks at the network edge to help defenders protect their systems. The announcement was made on 23 September 2026. GreyNoise Intelligence focuses on empowering cybersecurity defenders with intelligence about threats occurring at the network perimeter. The company did not disclose the names or specific roles of the new hires in the announcement. The appointments aim to deepen the firm's expertise in serving federal government and national security clients.

GreyNoise launches Project Swarm, A call for collective defense of the network edge. GreyNoise Intelligence Apr 29, 2026, 09:00 ET Invites Trusted Partners to Join Forces in Combating Attacks on Edge Systems WASHINGTON, April 29, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - GreyNoise Intelligence, the cybersecurity company providing real-time intelligence about edge attacks, today announced Project Swarm, a new collective research initiative to defend the network edge. By inviting partners to contribute IP space, device profiles, and detection capabilities, Project Swarm transforms GreyNoise's platform from a proprietary sensor network to a collective ecosystem for cyber intelligence. "We believe deception is the most effective way of getting telemetry about attacks on edge systems," said Ash Devata, CEO, GreyNoise. "Today, we are launching Project Swarm, a community initiative to improve the depth, diversity and speed of global threat intelligence for all GreyNoise users. If we want to effectively defend against increasingly sophisticated threat actors, we need to work together." The modern threat landscape is facing a critical inflection point. Advanced state-sponsored groups are hijacking edge devices - built-in tools on perimeter devices such as firewalls, VPN gateways, and load balancers - to maintain persistence without triggering traditional detection. These attacks are low-volume and highly targeted, making them invisible to conventional global datasets. At the same time, the exposure window is widening: research shows the average patch time for edge devices is approximately 32 days, while exploit time is often instant, especially when attacks are increasingly AI-assisted. This means that most critical internet-facing infrastructure sits exposed for months. To close this gap, the security community needs broader and deeper visibility into edge devices across the internet. Project Swarm opens the GreyNoise deception platform to the global security community, so that third parties - including security researchers, universities, non-profits, NGOs, equipment manufacturers, and Internet Service Providers - can contribute to building the world's largest and most advanced deception infrastructure. Project Swarm invites trusted partners to contribute to the GreyNoise platform in three ways: * Expanding IP Coverage. Partners provide physical connections to the internet to host sensors, expanding geographic and network diversity. * Expanding Device Coverage. Partners bring specific device profiles (enterprise firewalls, VPN gateways, routers, load balancers) so sensors appear as high-value assets to attackers. * Increasing Detection Velocity. Partners contribute new rules and tags to identify attacker tactics, techniques and procedures faster. There is no cost to participate in Project Swarm. Participants will receive full access to the traffic collected by their sensors for their own research, and can also compare their sensor traffic against the GreyNoise global baseline to see what's uniquely hitting their sensors.
