Gus Hunt, CEO of Hunt Technologies and former chief technology officer of CIA, has joined the federal business arm of VAST Data as a board member, responsible for advising the subsidiary on securing opportunities from and doing business with its public sector customers.

VAST Federal said Thursday Hunt will support its continued federal expansion efforts by providing insights based on his government service experience, which includes time as CTO and director of applications services at CIA.

“As the federal landscape only becomes more complex, there is a growing need for solutions that cost-effectively provide a rich mix of performance, scale, capacity and intelligence,” said Hunt.
