Robert C. O'Brien Joins Strider's Strategic Advisory Board
Strider Technologies, Inc., a recognized leader in the field of strategic intelligence, has officially announced the addition of Robert C. O'Brien, the former U.S. National Security Advisor, to its Advisory Board. This strategic appointment is aimed at fortifying Strider's commitment to innovation in AI, particularly in delivering real-time strategic intelligence amidst the complexities of modern geopolitical risks.
O'Brien's extensive experience in national security and business fortifies Strider’s goal to empower organizations with state-of-the-art intelligence solutions. He will focus on integrating advanced artificial intelligence strategies that enable leaders to navigate an increasingly turbulent global landscape. Under O'Brien’s expertise, Strider intends to enhance its capabilities and deliver actionable insights to aid businesses and government entities in safeguarding their assets from emerging nation-state threats.
Greg Levesque, the CEO and Co-Founder of Strider Technologies, expressed enthusiasm about collaborating with O'Brien, stating, "His insights and leadership experience will be vital as we strive to push the boundaries of what’s achievable in the intelligence sector. The challenges organizations face today require actionable, data-driven strategies that can evolve as swiftly as the threats they face."
The Advisory Board at Strider comprises a distinguished group of professionals hailing from national security, intelligence communities, and prominent business sectors. O'Brien joins the ranks of notable figures, including Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster and Charles Carmakal, further enhancing the board’s diverse expertise on strategic planning.
In his remarks, O'Brien emphasized the urgent need for organizations to be equipped with robust intelligence capabilities. "Adversarial nations, particularly China, are waging unprecedented campaigns against private sector firms to pilfer Western technology and intellectual resources. At Strider, our mission is pivotal—it’s all about empowering leaders with necessary strategic intelligence to counteract these evolving threats effectively," he stated.
O'Brien's career is marked by pivotal roles in shaping U.S. foreign policy and national security. He served as National Security Advisor from 2019 to 2021, providing crucial advice to then-President Trump. His background includes serving in various capacities related to negotiation and conflict resolution on global platforms, which aligns seamlessly with Strider’s forward-thinking mission.
Before his role as National Security Advisor, he was the Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs and has contributed to multiple governmental initiatives aimed at advancing U.S. interests abroad. O'Brien has also been a prominent voice in advocating for justice reforms on a global scale, having co-chaired the U.S. Department of State's initiatives during his earlier tenure.
Most recently, O'Brien's influence reaches into corporate governance, where he serves as chairman of the Board of Directors for the Richard Nixon Foundation. His multifaceted expertise is expected to lend significant value as Strider continues to develop its AI-enhanced platforms and methodologies.
Strider Technologies remains at the forefront of transforming publicly available data into profound insights that organizations can leverage to enhance their operational security against threats posed by nation states. Their innovative approach includes developing AI tools that streamline risk assessments concerning technology theft and industrial espionage.
With office locations spread across major global hubs, including Salt Lake City, Washington D.C., London, and Tokyo, Strider is positioned to advocate for organizations around the world. As they embrace O'Brien's wealth of knowledge, the company is set to further its mission of safeguarding innovation and critical assets against a backdrop of escalating global demands.
In a world where the line between competitive strategy and national security is increasingly blurred, the partnership between Strider and O'Brien could yield transformative advancements in safeguarding the innovations that drive the global economy forward.
