Former White House Office of Management and Budget Cyber Lead Joins OWI

NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, One World Identity (OWI), an independent strategy and research company focused on identity, has named Joe Stuntz, as Vice President of Cybersecurity.  Stuntz most recently served as Director of Program Performance for the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Cyber and National Security unit.

In his new role, Stuntz will advance the cybersecurity of OWI's clients by working with CFOs, CISOs, product developers, and investors by translating between security, business, and government.  Joe's focus will be a new suite of cybersecurity offerings that will improve security to drive compliance, but more importantly, contribute to better investment decisions and business outcomes.

"Over the past decade, I have operated at the intersection of identity and cybersecurity, with leadership roles in each. After meeting with the OWI team, it was clear that their focus and drive to enable change within the industry allows for a great opportunity," said Joe Stuntz Vice President of Cybersecurity at OWI.  "With what I have learned from my time at OMB and working in and around government cybersecurity and identity, I will be able to bring this background to a group of people with incredible expertise from the commercial sector."

Stuntz helped develop White House cybersecurity initiatives like reports for Executive Order 13800, the Cybersecurity National Action Plan (CNAP) and the Cybersecurity Strategy and Implementation Plan (CSIP). During his time with the White House, Stuntz was co-chair of Federal Identity, Credential, and Access Management Sub-Committee of the CIO Council and helped drive the cybersecurity performance of federal agencies, specifically surrounding identity management. Before he managed Federal-wide cybersecurity programs, Stuntz authored a number of OMB cybersecurity policies on topics including high value assets, CSIP and major incidents.  Prior to his time at OMB he was a consultant with engagements that included being on the writing team for the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF).

"Joe is truly a leader within the cyber and identity industry. He shares OWI's vision and has experienced innovation in cybersecurity policies, which will drive significant value to the OWI platform," said Travis Jarae, CEO of OWI. "We're looking forward to having Joe join our team as we continue to connect businesses and build awareness of the current identity challenges while providing valuable solutions," said Travis Jarae, CEO of OWI.
