O’Brien oversaw integration planning for the merger of Intelsat with SES. Before joining Intelsat, he worked for 34 years at Raytheon, now an RTX business. He played a critical role in the all-stock consolidation of Raytheon and United Technologies’ operations in 2019.
“Having worked closely with Toby at both Raytheon and Intelsat, I’ve seen firsthand his strategic mindset, operational discipline, and commitment to building strong teams. As Everfox enters its next phase of growth, Toby’s experience and leadership will be invaluable,” said Dave Wajsgras, Everfox chairman and CEO and a 2026 Wash100 awardee.
What Is Everfox?
Everfox, previously known as Forcepoint Federal, provides defense-grade cybersecurity systems to government customers. In 2024, the Herndon, Virginia-based firm acquired British company Garrison Technology to gain rights to hardware-enforced security capabilities. Everfox created a new advisory board in October 2024 and appointed Wasjgras as chairman and CEO in January 2026.
