Following the April 25th Government Analytics Breakfast (GAB) Forum hosted by REI Systems and Johns Hopkins University, NextGov published an article citing the speaker, Sarah Ellis Peed from DHS’ Office of Infrastructure Protection, and her advice on how data analysts can make their analyses useful and convincing. An excerpt from the article is below:
“As part of the agency’s National Protection and Programs Directorate, Peed’s office is responsible for assessing the nation’s critical infrastructure for cyber threats and vulnerabilities. While she noted Homeland Security currently has the “most analytically savvy leadership teams” in years, Peed recognized the people crunching the data often have different perspectives that the ones making decisions, and offered tips for bridging the gap.”
