WASHINGTON, April 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In times of change and uncertainty, both public and private organizations require trusted partners who have insights into the highest levels of U S. Government cyber policy-making and operations.

Cambridge Global Advisors (CGA), a service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB) with over a decade of experience in homeland and national security, has expanded its team by adding six senior members to its cyber roster. The new group of experts brings extensive leadership experience from The White House, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), and the private sector, providing invaluable insights into today's most pressing cyber challenges.

• Jake Braun – Former acting Principal Deputy National Cyber Director in The White House, DHS Senior Counselor to The Secretary, and Executive Director of the Cyber Policy Initiative at the University of Chicago.
• Nitin Natarajan – Former Deputy Director, CISA, Former National Security Council, and longtime homeland security and healthcare leader.
• Jeff Greene – Former Executive Assistant Director for Cybersecurity, CISA and Chief for Cyber Response & Policy in the NSC at the White House, with deep expertise in critical infrastructure protection across the public and private sector.

"This team of cyber experts has developed policy and executed operations at the highest levels of the U.S. Government," said Jake Braun, former acting White House Principal Deputy National Cyber Director. "Collectively, they possess peerless insights into current federal cyber plans, programs, budgets, and acquisitions." Braun will assume the role of CEO at CGA.

These appointments strengthen CGA's already formidable capabilities in cyber policy and budget analysis, acquisitions, regulatory frameworks, and cyber workforce development—areas where the firm already provides support to federal, state, local, and international infrastructure operators.

"This is a pivotal moment for cybersecurity," said Doug Lute, CGA chairman and former United States Ambassador to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
