WASHINGTON, Oct. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Michael Breslin, Strategic Client Relations
director for Federal Law Enforcement at
LexisNexis® Risk Solutions, has been
selected by the U.S. Secret Service from a small group of private
sector executives, government officials and academic experts to
advise the agency's investigations team on how it can better use
technology to get ahead of criminals.
The newly formed 16-member Cyber Investigations Advisory Board
(CIAB) will provide the Secret Service's Office of Investigations
with outside strategic input for the agency's investigative
mission, including insights on the latest trends in cybercrime,
financial crime, technology, and investigative techniques. Breslin
will draw on his 23 years of federal law enforcement experience
working with the United States Secret Service and his expertise in
transnational cyber and financial crime investigations to help the
agency combat the ongoing threats of cyber-enabled crimes.
"Public-private partnerships like the CIAB are very helpful as
the government contends with rampant COVID-19 related identity
thefts, fraud schemes and network intrusions," said Breslin.
"Agencies must arm themselves with a layered defense that can
detect the full spectrum of possible attacks and is future-proofed
against evolving threats."
