BearingPoint says Mark Gembicki has joined the company’s homeland security practice as national managing director for critical infrastructure protection. At BearingPoint, Gembicki will lead the Critical Infrastructure Protection practice providing executive-level management and security solutions to help corporate and government enterprises minimize business interruptions and respond more effectively to legal and regulatory changes.

Gembicki was most recently the director of homeland security for Deloitte& Touche’s Enterprise Risk Services practice.

“We are extremely delighted to have someone of Mark’s calibre join the ranks of our homeland security practice leadership team,” says Darryl Moody, senior vice president of homeland security at BearingPoint. “With the addition of Mark, BearingPoint has strengthened its unparalleled foundation of experience across the homeland security continuum, including state and local, federal, and international government agencies, as well as corporations.”

“So much of our country’s critical infrastructure lies in the private sector, which presents business organizations with a tremendous amount of responsibility,” says Gembicki. “BearingPoint is in a unique position to collaborate with both government and industry and find solutions that protect our nation’s infrastructure, while also helping businesses maintain their competitive edge. In addition, as a recognized leader in the homeland security arena, we intend to foster the development of valuable public-private collaboration.”

DEscribed by Bearing Point as a “well-known authority in security and intelligence circles,” Gembicki joined the National Security Agency as an analyst when he was 16. Over the past two decades he has served in a variety of roles, including: chief executive officer and chairman to cross-industry companies; senior advisor to the US Intelligence Community and Defense Industrial Base; investigator for the US Senate’s Security in Cyberspace Hearings; director of the Manhattan Cyber Project; and participant on Maryland Governor Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr.’s Homeland Security and Economic Development Mission to Israel.

Gembicki joins BearingPoint’s distinguished team of homeland security specialists, including Bob Chiaradio, former FBI executive assistant director, as well as Bob Hickes, former Pennsylvania state police deputy commissioner of staff.
