It is a great honor to serve as the President of InfraGard Arizona, effective December 15, 2023. I would like to thank the previous leaders of this organization for establishing a strong foundation to continue the Arizona InfraGard Mission to help protect the nation’s infrastructure by supporting the priorities of the FBI and cultivating partnerships with the public and private sectors through bi-directional sharing of actionable information, training, and educational events.
I began my participation in InfraGard as a cybersecurity incident response coordinator over 5 years ago, throughout my time, I have participated in the cybersecurity threat briefings, Annual Member Meetings, social events, and various educational and service opportunities. I have completed the FBI Citizen’s Academy to provide additional resources and expertise to our local InfraGard Chapter. I am very enthusiastic about the future of the Arizona InfraGard Chapter. We are enhancing the spectrum of talent on our Board of Directors and continue adding to Arizona's Sector Chiefs. In December 2023, the Board of Directors made the appointments of myself, Scott Campbell, and Han Brandt and then in April 2024, Michael Hacker, Ryan Wehe, Vic Einfeldt, and James Quinn were added as well. Clear and consistent communication can help keep everyone informed and engaged we strive to provide additional outreach to our members to provide the opportunity for you to be a part of our events and intelligence sharing. Please feel free to reach out to your leadership team to ensure the Arizona InfraGard continues to meet your needs and protect the nation’s infrastructure. I look forward to meeting you at the next event.
Yours in service,
Dara Gibson
