Vibrint, a leading innovator in defense technology solutions, has announced the appointment of Chris Oliver as General Manager of Products. Oliver will lead the planning, operations, and expansion of the company's fast-growing national security-focused products business, reporting to CEO Tom Lash as Vibrint continues to scale its defence and intelligence capabilities across new markets and mission environments.

The Strategic Moment Behind the Appointment

Vibrint has been on a significant growth trajectory — acquiring AI, cloud, and cybersecurity innovator Ampsight in May 2025, opening a new 15,000-square-foot office in Reston, Virginia in December 2025, and expanding its leadership team with a series of senior appointments across business development, operations, and strategy. The addition of a dedicated General Manager of Products reflects the company's intent to accelerate its products division as a distinct and growing engine of its national security business, separate from its services operations.

Vibrint's capabilities span cybersecurity and quantum modernisation, high-performance computing, advanced analytics, digital engineering, and secure mission systems integration — supporting defence and intelligence customers from strategy through deployment in high-consequence operational environments that demand scalability, compliance, and operational resilience without room for trial and error.

"Chris brings deep experience supporting national security missions and understands what it takes to deliver solutions that are both rapid and resilient. He has a clear perspective on what works in dynamic, complex and critical operational environments — and how to build teams and partner ecosystems that can move quickly while scaling to meet evolving mission demands. That combination is invaluable to our customers and our organisation as we continue to grow."
— Tom Lash, CEO, Vibrint

Chris Oliver's Background: Three Decades in National Security Technology

Oliver brings more than three decades of experience expanding technology-driven businesses within the national security market. Most recently, as CEO of ID Technologies, he led the private equity-backed firm's transformation into a leading provider of mission-focused product solutions and managed services — including the development of Archon Secure, a secure remote-access platform built specifically for national security customers.

During his tenure at ID Technologies, Oliver guided strategic acquisitions, strengthened software and product talent across the organisation, and positioned the company for its successful sale to a major defence contractor in 2022. His combination of operational leadership, product development expertise, and demonstrated ability to build partner ecosystems within the national security sector aligns directly with the mandate Vibrint is giving him to scale and accelerate its products business.

"For Vibrint and its customers, this is a moment when focus and execution matter. When you're building products for national security customers, you don't get the luxury of trial and error — they have to work. I'm excited to help accelerate Vibrint's product engine and gear up solutions to market at a pace and volume that meet mission demands head-on."
— Chris Oliver, General Manager of Products, Vibrint
