“I am writing to offer my strongest recommendation for David Hayers. During his time on my team, David was instrumental in architecting the cybersecurity strategy for the entire Verizon network. Given that our organization is a persistent High-Value Target, this role required exceptional judgment and precision. David successfully crafted our comprehensive roadmap for cryptography and post-quantum transitions. His approach to analysis is rigorous; when tasked with challenging the status quo, he exercises extreme due diligence, providing leadership with complete assurance in his findings. He possesses a rare ability to distill complex technical concepts into forward-looking insights that command the attention of stakeholders. Beyond his technical acumen, David is a proactive and unifying force within the team. He is articulate and persuasive—a key asset when formalizing guidance for major vendors. Most notably, David possesses the 'superpower' of active listening. This makes him a highly effective negotiator, a critical skill set when driving necessary upgrades across complex security systems. David is top-tier talent and an asset you definitely want in your group.”
