# Cogility Adds National Security Advisors

Cogility announced a four-member advisory board of former senior national security leaders to inform the company’s strategy and support growth of its Cogynt.ai decision-intelligence platform, which it markets for insider-risk and other high-consequence use cases. The appointees are former Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency Director David M. Cattler, retired Army Lieutenant Generals Erik C. Peterson and Laura A. Potter, and former CIA Chief Strategy Officer Constantine Saab. The announcement signals a stronger focus on government and commercial national-security markets, but identifies no solicitation, contract award, procurement timeline, or funding commitment.

- Government buyers and contractors may view the appointments as a signal of Cogility’s interest in national-security use cases; the announcement itself does not establish a procurement opportunity or endorsement by the former officials’ agencies.
- Cogynt.ai is positioned for insider-risk and other high-consequence applications. Organizations evaluating this market can assess the platform against their operational needs, but the signal provides no technical requirements, pricing, or acquisition details.
- Cogility’s announcement names no procurement contact or bid process. The listed media contact is for the announcement, not identified as a contracting contact.
