Dragos appoints SANS veteran Rob T. Lee as first chief AI officer to guide OT cybersecurity strategy

Dragos has appointed Rob T. Lee, a 25-year veteran of SANS Institute, as its first chief artificial intelligence (AI) officer. Lee will advise industrial and critical infrastructure organizations on adopting and securing AI within operational technology environments, where the stakes of AI errors differ fundamentally from information technology networks. He will also lead research on AI in operational technology (OT) and guide Dragos's internal AI strategy.

Why it matters: Asset owners deploying AI in OT systems face urgent decisions about model oversight and human-in-the-loop requirements without established guidance; practitioners should engage with Dragos's research and advisory services to navigate AI governance in critical infrastructure where failures have physical consequences.
