Deloitte strengthens Cyber Practice with former Director of Cybersecurity MIVD Henrick Bos

Deloitte Netherlands has appointed Henrick Bos as Director within the Cyber Practice. He will help organisations in the public and private sectors to translate cyber risks into choices in the boardroom and strengthen their digital resilience.

Henrick has a broad background in intelligence, national security and administrative consulting. 

He held senior positions at the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee, including Commander of Civil Aviation Security, Head of Police Schiphol and Deputy Director of Operations. 

He then worked in The Hague as a senior policy advisor at the General Policy Affairs Directorate of Defence and as a general project leader for NSS 2014 Security at the NCTV. 

After that, he worked at the MIVD as Head of Counter-Intelligence, Head of Intelligence and most recently as Director of Cybersecurity, where he ended his career at the Ministry of Defence as Brigadier General.

The combination of operational experience and administrative knowledge means that Bos can quickly identify cyber threats and translate them into concrete options for action for administrators.

At Deloitte, he will advise directors and C-level executives on cyber threats and digital resilience. He is also actively in contact with public and private stakeholders.

"Henrick knows better than anyone what cyber threats mean for organisations and their directors. He understands how these risks affect in practice and what choices this requires in the boardroom. This combination of experience and managerial insight helps us to make organisations even more resilient," says Frank Groenewegen, Partner Cyber Risk at Deloitte.

"Cybersecurity is still too often seen as something that slows down innovation, while it is actually a prerequisite for being able to innovate safely. At Deloitte, I look forward to helping organisations increase their digital resilience and translate cybersecurity issues into strategic choices that help organisations move forward," says Henrick Bos, Director Cyber Risk at Deloitte.
