We intend to focus our search on the cybersecurity, safety, security and privacy, or CSSP, sector, which complements the expertise of our management team.

Dave DeWalt, our chairman of the board, served as the CEO of FireEye, McAfee and Documentum.

“Night Dragon,” one of the first major known nation-state cyberattacks, was a series of coordinated, covert and targeted cyberattacks from China conducted against global oil, energy and petrochemical companies which eventually affected approximately 71 organizations worldwide. The Night Dragon attacks began in 2009 (or potentially as early as 2007) and were reported by McAfee in February 2011 while Dave DeWalt was its chief executive officer. Under Dave DeWalt’s leadership, McAfee led the successful investigation and response to the breach. The “Night Dragon” attack and subsequent investigation and response to the breach led by McAfee was a seminal moment in the history of the cybersecurity, safety, security and privacy industry. As tribute, our founders have named their newly established blank check company NightDragon Acquisition Corp.
