LONDON, United Kingdom, September 22nd 2025 – Crowdsourced security leader Intigriti has appointed Ed Parsons to the role of Chief Operations Officer [COO].

Stijn Jans, CEO at Intigriti, said: “Ed Parsons joins Intigriti with a track record of success at cybersecurity scale-up businesses, as well as having previously held executive positions at a listed cybersecurity organization. He understands Intigriti’s ambitions and direction of travel, and knows what it takes for Intigriti to achieve its potential.

“Ed is also an extensively-qualified cybersecurity professional in his own right; he’s a CISSP, a CCISO, and he recently became one of the UK’s first Chartered Cyber Security Professionals [ChCSP] – collectively giving both our customers and community of ethical hackers tremendous confidence that he understands the roles and needs of all parties in our ecosystem,” added Jans.

“I’m looking forward to drawing on my experiences of working within larger organizations to help set up Intigriti for the next stage of its development,” said Ed Parsons. “Like Intigriti, I am all about ‘quality of service’, and this is what I will be aiming to maintain and improve as we scale-up this business. With Intigriti, I see a terrific opportunity to help international companies manage risk, encapsulating my career focus to date. And Intigriti also enables me to contribute to growing the world’s community of ethical security hackers, which is a personal passion.”

Parsons’ most recent position was as Vice-President Global Markets and Member Relations for ISC2, the world’s largest cybersecurity membership organization. His prior career includes service as Executive Vice-President, Consulting for F-Secure Corporation; Director of MWR Security [acquired by F-Secure in 2018]; and Senior Manager, Cyber Security for KPMG UK, having started his career as a management consultant with the same organisation.
