2025 DCRO Exemplar Profile: Kevin R. Brock Kevin R. Brock brought a rare mix of experience from the highest levels of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, management consulting firm Booz Allen Hamilton, and his own entrepreneurial initiatives to his work. He authored the founding justification documents establishing, defining, and resourcing a new Cyber Division within the FBI. Later, he was named the FBI’s first Assistant Director for Intelligence, where he helped start-up, establish, and lead a new Intelligence Directorate in the FBI following recommendations of the 9/11 Commission. He was then asked to become the first Principal Deputy Director of a post-9/11 presidential initiative known as the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC). There, he negotiated, crafted, and helped firmly establish NCTC’s operational role within the Intelligence Community. Kevin was recognized with the Presidential Rank Award for Meritorious Service to the Nation in 2006 and served as a faculty member for the DCRO Institute. This award is granted posthumously. #risk #leadership #governance #exemplar
