Brown’s role will shape Blackpoint’s security strategy and further partner enablement as the company scales.
With a wealth of experience in organizational security maturity and incident response, Brown joins Blackpoint Cyber after successful tenures at Optiv and Microsoft Detection and Response Team (DART). As an incident manager with DART, she guided organizations in improving their security posture by leveraging Microsoft security solutions and developing security teams and training programs.
She also supported organizations through incident recovery, providing case and crisis management expertise while navigating advanced adversary investigations.

As VP of Security, Brown will oversee Blackpoint’s internal security strategy while playing a role in championing the company’s product ecosystem and security vision in the MSP and cybersecurity communities.
Brown’s expertise will be instrumental in distilling and delivering threat intelligence insights to ensure MSPs are informed and prepared.
