“Phil brings to Peraton more than 20 years of experience providing industrial security for Fortune 500 companies,” Peraton CEO Stu Shea said.

“He understands full-spectrum security — the complex interplay among such aspects as risk management, crisis management, program security, international operations, training and insider threat,” added Shea, a 2014 inductee into Executive Mosaic‘s Wash100.

Prior to Leidos, Mazzocco worked in senior security roles at other GovCon firms such as General Dynamics (NYSE: GD), CGI Federal (NYSE: GIB) and Science Applications International Corp. (NYSE: SAIC).

Peraton emerged from the former Harris Corp. (NYSE: HRS) government services business that Veritas Capital acquired earlier this year.
