LookingGlass said Tuesday it named Taxay as chief risk officer and general counsel and appointed Haas as chief security officer.
Taxay will be responsible for managing significant risks that may impact operations, strategy and reputation of the company as well as act as the firm’s primary legal adviser.
He previously held a senior leadership role at the FBI’s cyber division responsible for counter-cyber intrusion efforts.
Before that, he was acting director for cyber counterterrorism and financial enforcement at the Justice Department and deputy chief of DOJ’s counterterrorism section.
Taxay worked as a software developer for a consulting services provider before he joined the federal government.
