He also held leadership roles in EY’s cybersecurity practice and in the Army National Guard.


Tyra, who holds a Master of Business Administration and Master of Science in computer science, also served as President of the San Antonio, Texas chapter of the Military Cyber Professionals Association and contributing editor for the association’s CYBER magazine.


“Kivu is already well-known for its comprehensive, expert post-breach remediation services,” said Tyra. “I am excited to join Kivu’s world-class team and bring even more hands-on, international experience to help Kivu’s clients reduce their exposure to attack – on premises and in the cloud, and to help restore normal operations as quickly as possible post-incident.”
