Chairman of the Board of Directors and President
Ed Jopeck specializes in security analysis and security risk management methods. With over 20 years of security and risk management experience at the federal, state, local level, and with private sector clients, Mr. Jopeck has helped propel risk management from an esoteric and little understood theory, to a widely-used and increasingly valuable core business process for those involved in the analysis and management of security, counterintelligence and antiterrorism. Since the early 1990s he has been continuously involved in creating and modifying risk analysis methodologies, performing risk assessments, and teaching risk analysis and risk management classes for federal, state and local agencies concerned with threats to national security and homeland security.
Ed Jopeck is a Senior Principal at SRA International specializing in security analysis, risk assessment, risk management, intelligence and infrastructure protection. Over his 20-year career in the field he has developed, evaluated and applied security risk assessment methodologies in the intelligence, defense and homeland security communities. For the US Department of Homeland Security, Mr. Jopeck has supported numerous risk analysis and risk management efforts in Department's Preparedness Directorate. Between 2003 and 2007 he served as a security risk management consultant leading the development of strategic-level antiterrorism risk analysis methods to improve the protection of critical infrastructures and special events from terrorist attack, and was a key contributor to the risk management chapter of the National Infrastructure Protection Plan.
Prior to September 11, 2001, Mr. Jopeck worked as an intelligence and security analyst for the Central Intelligence Agency, and later as a security analysis and risk management consultant to numerous other governmental organizations. While at CIA, Mr. Jopeck was a key developer and lead instructor of the CIA's Analytical Risk Management training program which was awarded a National Intelligence Meritorious Unit Citation by the Director of Central Intelligence. Since leaving CIA in 1997, he has led antiterrorism risk assessments of large US water supply systems serving nearly 12 million people, and assessed 19 federally-owned high-hazard dams, and associated hydropower plants. In addition to being the author of numerous articles, lectures and training courses on security, antiterrorism and counterintelligence risk assessment, he has participated in several high profile national security projects, such as the Department of Treasury's White House Security Review and the President's Y2K Information Coordination Center.
Mr. Jopeck currently serves as President and Chairman of the Board of the Security Analysis and Risk Management Association (SARMA), a not-for profit professional trade association serving the professional needs of security analysts and the federal government users of protective security and risk analysis.
