The Global Cyber Alliance (GCA) is an international, cross-sector effort dedicated to eradicating cyber risk. Founded in 2015, GCA emerged from a collaboration between the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, the Center for Internet Security, and the City of London Police. 1

Overview

The Global Cyber Alliance was founded in 2015 by the Center for Internet Security, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office and the City of London Police with the goal of proactively preventing cybercrime. 2 During his tenure as District Attorney, Cyrus Vance Jr. oversaw high-profile investigations involving figures such as President Donald Trump and Trump administration advisor Steve Bannon.  3

Philip Reitinger has served as President and chief executive officer of the Global Cyber Alliance since 2015. Before joining GCA, Reitinger was the director of the National Cyber Security Center at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. He also worked as Sony’s senior vice president and chief information security officer and as chief trustworthy infrastructure strategist at Microsoft. Reitinger holds a bachelor of engineering in electrical engineering and computer science and a J.D. from Yale Law School. 4
