"This award really goes out to the entire industrial cybersecurity community and is a reflection of the hard work and progress made to protect critical infrastructure around the world from cyberattacks," said Robert M. Lee, CEO and Co-Founder, Dragos. "The path to securing the industrial operations that people rely on requires us to educate and empower each other to all be successful."
Winners were evaluated based on their demonstration of long-term value through entrepreneurial spirit, purpose, growth and impact, among other core contributions and attributes. Since its launch, the program has expanded to recognize business leaders in more than 145 cities in over 60 countries throughout the world who are building a more equitable, sustainable and prosperous world for all.
Lee is a recognized pioneer in the industrial cybersecurity community. He serves on the Department of Energy's Electricity Advisory Committee, and is Vice Chair of DOE's Grid Resilience for National Security Subcommittee. He is also a member of the World Economic Forum's subcommittees on Cyber Resilience for the Oil & Gas and Electricity communities, and serves on the board of the National Cryptologic Foundation.
A business leader and technical practitioner, Lee helped lead the investigation into the 2015 attack on Ukraine's power grid, and has been involved in the most significant cyberattacks on industrial infrastructure around the globe, including the investigation and analysis of the 2016 attack on Ukraine's electric system, the 2017 TRISIS attack on a Saudi Arabian petrochemical facility, and the 2021 Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack. Lee's work has been featured in the book Sandworm, on 60 Minutes, and most recently, he was invited to present at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos.
