He was previously Vice President of Cyber Infrastructure Programs for Parsons Corporation in Centreville, Va., andwas the National Industrial Cyber Security Business Development Manager for Siemens Industry and Blue Lang, Senior Product Manager, former Chief Architect and Engineering Leader for the SDN Enterprise Controller at Cisco Systems.

“Veracity is on the road to establishing industry leadership in 2018,” Myer said. “While there are many folks developing solutions for critical infrastructure cybersecurity, the customers we talk to want a comprehensive solution that adds visibility and control to their tools. Veracity’s solution is the only one that meets these needs.”
