Sabra Horne, former chief of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s innovation hub, has been named an entrepreneur in residence at Palo Alto, California-based technology incubator BMNT, FedScoop reported Monday.
She will help oversee BMNT’s artificial intelligence-driven InsightAI program that works to analyze data from internal sources such as employee surveys.
Horne led the development of Hacking for Homeland Security, an entrepreneurship initiative between BMNT and several Department of Homeland Security components, and played a key role in the transformation of the former National Protection and Programs Directorate into the agency now known as CISA.
Her government career also includes time at the National Security Agency, the Department of Justice and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
BMNT, founded and led by 32-year U.S. Army veteran Peter Newell, aims to help early-stage companies develop and apply national security technology to national security missions.
