It is with profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Michael Jacobs, a co-founder and 2023 honoree of the Cyber Security Hall of Fame. As a co-founder of the Cyber Security Hall of Fame, Michael worked tirelessly to celebrate the achievements of those who have shaped the cyber security field, fostering a legacy of excellence and inspiration for future generations. His influence extends beyond his professional contributions, touching the lives of many who had the privilege to know him personally. Michael's other major accomplishments included the First Information Assurance Director at National Security Agency and serving as Mayor of College Park. Michael's loss is deeply felt, but his memory will endure as a beacon of excellence and integrity. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all those mourning this incredible loss. May we honor his legacy by continuing to strive for innovation and collaboration, in the field of Cyber Security. #CyberSecurity #InMemory #MichaelJacobs #Leadership #Legacy #NationalSecurityAgency #CollegePark

About us
The Cyber Security Hall of Fame started in 2012 to recognize global cyber security leaders while encouraging future generations to follow in their footsteps. These acknowledged individuals come together to tell the story of cyber security, who were credited for their excellence in technology, education, business, policy, and public awareness of the Cyber Security Industry. In 2022, we will transition from Cyber’s “Foundational” era to the “Transformational” era - next phase of Cyber Security continuum. This period will focus on cyber security’s shift to business outcomes and will focus on those inventors or technologies that fall within the NIST’s 23 categories under the 5 function areas – Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover. The goal of the cyber security hall of fame is to honor the icons and create an enduring tribute to those individuals that have impacted the industry in the past, present and future.
