Summary
Joshua Hart is a cyber security leader with over a decade of hands-on experience across enterprise and government environments, now directing Capital One’s Cyber Security Operations Center after senior security leadership roles at Yahoo and Verizon Media. A 14-year U.S. Air Force veteran, he combines deep operational expertise in IDS/IPS, Palo Alto and FireEye platforms, Zeek, and large-scale Splunk analytics with practical systems engineering and DevOps skills. He has architected and administered major Splunk deployments, developed custom detection apps, and driven SOC analytics and automation to accelerate detection and response. Known for a pragmatic, collaborative approach, he bridges policy, engineering, and incident response while still enjoying low-level systems work on Linux, macOS, and Ansible. Unusually for a leader at his level, he retains active technical craftsmanship—building dashboards, tuning detections, and shipping tooling himself.
