Former DOE CISO Joins Research Firm

Bruce Brody, former associate CISO of the Department of Energy, has joined research firm Input.  Brody resigns from his post today after 25 years of federal services, and will join Input on January 9.

Brody will take on the VP of information security title at Input, and will lead the firm’s consulting practice as well as contribute to its federal information security analysis program.

“Bruce’s insight and experience with information and cybersecurity is unmatched in the government industry,” said Alan Balutis, Input’s president and CEO, in a written statement.  “Our members have expressed in increased level of interest in IT security, and we are thrilled to have Bruce on the Input team to help them understand, plan and succeed within this growing market.”

Prior to joining Input, Brody oversaw the DOE’s cybersecurity program and resources.  From 2001 to 2004, he served as the associate deputy assistance secretary for cyber and information security at the Department of Veteran Affairs.

“I’m excited to bring my information security experience to Input members to continue to support these important initiatives in the government market,” Brody said.

Brody will report directly to Balutis.
