FTI Consulting Launches National Security Offering Led by Former FBI Assistant Director
16 Setembro 2024 - 8:30AM
FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today announced the launch of a
National Security offering to address growing threats to the
private sector and increased demand for comprehensive solutions
that protect clients, their supply chains and critical assets, and
national interests in an increasingly globalized and digitized
world.
Domestic and international companies in all industries are
facing threats from sophisticated, hostile foreign actors. They
also need to be prepared for operational, technical and financial
challenges that may pose risks to national interests and invite
regulatory investigation or enforcement actions. The National
Security offering will include risk and compliance advisory and
investigative capabilities focused on critical industries and
infrastructure, such as healthcare, financial services and energy,
as well as technology including the semiconductor industry.
Michael J. Driscoll, former Assistant Director in Charge of the
FBI’s New York office, will lead the offering. Mr. Driscoll has
more than 26 years of experience in cybersecurity, threat
intelligence, criminal investigations and national security and
extensive collaboration with international partners in the
government and private sector.
“The private sector is now a crucial player in national
security, especially as emerging technologies and geopolitical
tensions reshape the global landscape,” said Mr. Driscoll, a Senior
Managing Director at FTI Consulting. “Sensitive customer data,
advanced technologies, valuable intellectual property and political
and economic influence are highly targeted by foreign actors for a
competitive edge, so it’s critical that companies remain vigilant
and proactively adapt to counter national security threats and
comply with regulatory requirements, which are continuing to expand
and evolve.”
FTI Consulting’s multidisciplinary team of experts, with
backgrounds from the Department of Justice, FBI, U.S. Secret
Service and other government agencies and regulators, as well as
in-house legal and Chief Compliance Officers, will advise on a
range of national security issues, including cyber risks and
attacks, insider threats, espionage, CFIUS reviews, export
controls, sanctions, transshipment and diversion of critical
technology, cross-border data sharing and intellectual property
theft. FTI Consulting has deep experience supporting organizations
facing complex regulatory challenges and assisting with development
and implementation of risk assessment, diligence and compliance
program structures.
“Our global interconnectedness and reliance on technology for
essential services can present significant threats, including to
national security, if proper risk mitigation strategies are not
implemented,” said Anthony J. Ferrante, a Senior Managing Director
at FTI Consulting and former Director for Cyber Incident Response
at the U.S. National Security Council at the White House. “A single
incident can have cascading impacts and create sustained
disruption, emphasizing the need to help the private sector ensure
they are doing their part in protecting national security
interests.”
William Perlstein, Global Segment Leader of the Forensic and
Litigation Consulting segment at FTI Consulting, added, “Our
national security experience spans critical areas like
cybersecurity, investigations, export controls, sanctions and
trade. When teamed with our strategic communications and data and
analytics capabilities, our multidisciplinary teams bring deep
industry expertise to the most challenging issues facing the
private sector. I look forward to seeing how they will help our
clients mitigate and manage national security risk.”
