Summary
Dennis Griffin is a hands-on technology executive and founder with eight years of experience scaling cybersecurity and AI-driven platforms, currently leading Platform Security at Anduril. He built and exited DarkBytes, pioneering a unified EPP-powered Managed Detection and Response service that became the foundation for Sophos’ MDR offerings. At Sophos he rose through engineering leadership to VP, driving AI agents, security governance, MDR/XDR/NDR, SOAR, and M&A integration while evangelizing AI coding adoption. A polyglot engineer and product generalist, he bridges low-level security craftsmanship—from penetration testing and hardware implants—to cloud-native product strategy and go-to-market execution. Known for thriving in ambiguity, he turns emerging technologies into productized, revenue-generating solutions and is a repeat founder-operator comfortable in both R&D and post-acquisition scale. Based in the United States, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with deep practical expertise across AI, networking, and enterprise security.
