The NTSC is a unique organization that brings together CISOs from across different industries to share ideas, discuss important policy priorities, and engage the evolving policy landscape. I am honored to join my peers on the NTSC Board of Directors and help to elevate cybersecurity considerations in national policy discussions.”

Additionally, she serves as SVP, Product and Information Security for Comcast. Davis joined Comcast from Intel, where she served as Vice President, Global Quality, Intel Security Group. Previously, she was a Visiting Scientist and Senior Member of Technical Staff at the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute and a Principal of management consulting firm Davis Systems, and she has held various leadership and technical positions in Fortune 500 companies such as Chrysler and Intergraph.
A champion of women in technology, she serves on the Advisory Board of Comcast/NBCUniversal TechWomen, has received the WICT/SCTE•ISBE/Cablefax Women in Technology award, and has been included on the Cablefax 100, Cablefax Diversity, Cablefax Most Powerful Women and Top Women in Technology lists multiple times.
“Noopur’s scientific background and tenure at companies such as Comcast, Intel, and Chrysler gives her a wide-ranging, cross-industry background that we desire in many of the NTSC’s board members,” said Patrick Gaul, Executive Director of the NTSC. “In addition, I admire Noopur’s commitment to ensuring that more women enter the field of cybersecurity—an important issue that more CISOs need to champion. Noopur is a leader and innovator in her field, and we are honored to have her join our board of directors. We look forward to adding her energy and input into our efforts of bringing the voice of the CISO to Washington, D.C.”
