Global management consulting firm Oliver Wyman and Next Peak, an
operational cyber defense consulting company, announced today a new
collaboration to offer a broader and enhanced range of advisory and
operational services to clients focused on defending and improving
resilience against global cyber threats.
“At a time when cyber threats are becoming increasingly common,
more dangerous, and more sophisticated, leaders across all
industries are looking for ways to protect their companies,” said
Michael Zeltkevic, Partner and Head of Americas at Oliver Wyman.
“Oliver Wyman and Next Peak together can now help deepen front-line
defenses for clients – bringing together the strategy, diagnostic,
and design strengths of Oliver Wyman with the operational,
technical, and specialized cyber capabilities of Next Peak.”
Specifically, the collaboration will enable Oliver Wyman to
extend specialized in-depth expertise across cyber risk, security
architecture, security operations, and cyber resilience. These
include unique approaches to operational capacity building,
targeted attack analysis, and addressing geographically-based and
regulatory cyber risks.
The Next Peak Team
Dr. Greg Rattray, Co-Founder/Partner of Next Peak, was most
recently with JP Morgan Chase, where he held positions as their
Chief Information Security Officer and leader of the Global Cyber
Partnership team. Prior to JP Morgan Chase, Greg was founder and
CEO of Delta Risk, providing advanced cyber defense services to
clients globally. During his 23-year Air Force career, Greg was the
Director for Cybersecurity in the White House and commanded the
Operations Group of the Air Force Information Warfare Center. He
also served as Internet Security Advisor to ICANN. He is currently
an adjunct senior research professor at Columbia University.
Jim Cummings, Co-Founder/Partner of Next Peak, previously was
Chief Security Officer for JP Morgan Chase, where he was
responsible for directing and executing physical and cyber
security, investigations, and business resiliency efforts for over
240,000 employees in 60 countries across 6,500 facilities
worldwide. Additionally, he served 24 years in the Air Force,
including as Director of Homeland Defense on the National Security
Council in the White House during the Bush and Obama
Administrations, and commanded the Air Force’s Cyber Security
Operations Center and other full-spectrum cyber operations.
Through its Cyber Defender network, Next Peak provides a team of
highly experienced cyber professionals who are battle tested in
cyber defense operations, security architecture, and resiliency
across multiple industries, law enforcement, and the Department of
Defense. In this capacity, Cyber Defenders have identified numerous
advanced persistent threats, built resilient infrastructures,
established and operated state-of-the-art cyber operation centers,
and developed US military cyber defense tactics manuals and
corporate defense playbooks. Additionally, Next Peak defenders have
responded to major breaches, restored operations, and brought
justice to international hackers in multiple successful
prosecutions. Next Peak assists clients in building their own
capacity through risk assessments, advisory, operational training,
exercises, stress testing, and drills.
“Together, Oliver Wyman and Next Peak can deliver game-changing
cyber defense tactics, techniques, and procedures, and can stress
test cyber resiliency for clients based upon real experience and
proven capabilities,” added Jim Cummings and Dr. Greg Rattray.
“Securing networks is no longer enough; you must defend with
confidence and ensure your ability to recover when that bad day
happens.”
“Having access to a large network of experienced cyber defenders
under the leadership of two cyber veterans will be extremely
valuable to Oliver Wyman’s clients,” said Paul Mee, Partner and
Cyber Platform Lead at Oliver Wyman. Cummings added, “Next Peak
offers a practical, business-driven approach to managing cyber risk
and is deeply experienced in the most challenging corporate and
defense environments.”
