Summary
Dave Dugal is a Senior Principal Cybersecurity Engineer and seasoned Product Security Incident Manager with nearly 25 years as a primary external contact for product and protocol security reports, now on HPE’s Product Security Incident Response Team. He helped found and grow Juniper’s SIRT from a virtual team into an industry-recognized incident response organization and brings deep operational knowledge of Junos/JUNOSe from his prior escalation-engineer career. A long-time standards contributor and co-author of RFC 6192, Dave co-led the CVSS Special Interest Group and co-authored CVSS v3.0, v3.1 and v4.0, shaping how vulnerabilities are scored globally. He blends hands-on vulnerability triage and lifecycle security leadership with cross-functional evangelism, bridging internal engineering, support, and the wider incident response community. Based in New Hampshire, he combines institutional memory with active standards work, making him as comfortable in high-stakes incident rooms as in consensus-driven specification meetings.
