NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Brooke Johnson serves as Ivanti’s Chief Legal Officer and Senior Vice President for HR and Security, where she plays a central role in advancing Ivanti’s global cybersecurity posture. Through her strategic leadership, compliance, governance and security operations are cohesively integrated into a unified defense framework, strengthening Ivanti’s position as a future‑ready organization.

Brooke established Ivanti’s AI Governance Committee to ensure the ethical, transparent and secure use of AI technologies across the organization. Under her leadership, the committee addresses risks tied to bias, privacy exposure and vulnerabilities inherent in emerging AI systems, creating a consistent framework for responsible AI adoption. This initiative reflects her broader philosophy: security is strengthened not just through compliance but through intentional governance frameworks that anticipate how innovation and risk evolve together.

Brooke’s leadership has driven major security milestones for Ivanti. She has elevated its cyber maturity by aligning internal policies with key industry standards, including Authorization to Operate (ATO), ISO/IEC 27001 (International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission) and other regulatory frameworks. As a result, Ivanti’s security controls remain robust and aligned with the expectations of stakeholders in both private and public sectors.

Another major achievement under Brooke’s guidance is Ivanti’s advancement toward FedRAMP High In-Process status for the Ivanti Neurons Platform, an accomplishment that reinforces Ivanti’s credibility with the world’s most security‑sensitive enterprises and U.S. federal agencies. Brooke has also been instrumental in strengthening Ivanti’s public‑sector readiness by serving as a key liaison with congressional stakeholders, helping shape conversations around federal cybersecurity standards, emerging threats and public‑sector security priorities. Her ability to translate complex risk considerations into clear, actionable insights strengthens Ivanti’s role as a trusted partner to federal agencies and contributes to a more resilient national security ecosystem.

Brooke’s influence extends beyond Ivanti, shaping the broader cybersecurity industry through authoritative thought leadership. Her expertise in security, privacy compliance and governance has earned her consistent recognition in top‑tier publications including Fortune, CIO, Help Net Security and Computerworld, where she provides insight and an essential perspective for executives, practitioners and policymakers navigating emerging threats.

Brooke’s contributions to Ivanti and the broader cybersecurity community have positioned her as a trusted, influential voice guiding the future of modern cyber defense.
