CMMC-AB said Monday that Travis will lead day-to-day operations of CMMC-AB in line with the Department of Defense’s cybersecurity vetting program for the defense industrial base.
He served as deputy undersecretary of the National Protection and Programs Directorate before the Department of Homeland Security component became CISA in 2018, according to his official bio.
