Brad Wilson

Brad Wilson’s experience includes national security, Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) audits and monitorships, insider threats, data analytics, eDiscovery, and process improvement for boards and senior management in the healthcare, technology, pharmaceutical, finance, communications, industrial, and government sectors. His advisement has led to business improvements—and inherent competitive advantages—through automation and digital transformations. He also advises clients on managing cyber risk through assessments of supply chains, enterprise architectures, data-driven analytics, and integrating program management into complex corporate structures.

Mr. Wilson advises clients on national security compliance issues and process control improvements involving sensitive data identification, vendor management, and identity access management. His case work has included acting as the forensic technology lead for global investigations for multinational companies involving allegations of foreign corruption and responding to regulatory inquiries. For a multinational financial company, Mr. Wilson supervised a cybersecurity investigation of suspicious wire fraud transfers with allegations of insider and external threat actors; and managed the business email compromise investigation that included fact-finding and analysis of financial and digital artifacts. He has also led cybersecurity investigations stemming from theft of trade secrets, network intrusions, and diversion of funds for clients in the banking, medical device, and construction sectors; and corporate investigations related to allegations ranging from fraud, antitrust, and other serious crimes.

Mr. Wilson focuses on integrating technological approaches, including machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), to drive insights and make informed decisions. He has applied predictive analytics to disparate data sources to react to trends before they become risks. Before he joined BRG, he assisted compliance, legal, and internal audit teams to align policies and procedures to address these business risks. He assists clients in achieving greater business value through digital transformations of their compliance programs. In one case, to quickly close critical gaps in a compliance process, he performed a rapid digital transformation of a company’s compliance program to avoid risks and save cost. These efforts led to a corporate compliance program focused on resilience and continuous improvement.

Mr. Wilson previously was a director in the Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Forensics practice for a Big Four advisory firm, where he was influential in driving innovation in discovery solutions, ML, AI, legal operations, and performance improvement. He has extensive experience building and implementing discovery, data-security readiness programs, and other incident-response programs through data handling, data mapping, policies and procedures, education, and awareness programs. He also has advised on legal operations relating to strategic assessments, prioritization, and implementation of process improvements, while enhancing and streamlining companies’ core functions.
