Jeffrey Carr is a cybersecurity author, researcher, entrepreneur and consultant, who focuses on cyber warfare.

Career
In 2008, Carr founded Project Grey Goose, a crowd-sourced open-source intelligence effort to attribute major cyber attacks. The Project soliticited the expertise of vetted volunteers, while seeking to filter out non-experts and cyber criminals. The Project's first area of research was the campaign of cyberattacks during the Russo-Georgian War.

In 2011, Carr created the Suits and Spooks conference series, which offered a private forum for intelligence veterans to meet with technologists, academics, hackers, and business executives. The forum was acquired by Wired Business Media in 2014.

He is currently founder and principal consultant at "The 20K League", a cybersecurity consultancy network. Carr has served as CEO of cybersecurity firms Taia Global Ltd (also founder) and GreyLogic.

Carr has lectured on cybersecurity issues at the Defense Intelligence Agency, U.S. Army War College, Air Force Institute of Technology, NATO’s CCDCOE Conference on Cyber Conflict, and DEF CON.

Writing and Research
He is the author of Inside Cyber Warfare: Mapping the Cyber Underworld (O'Reilly Media 2009, 2011), which analyzed cyber conflicts from 2002 until 2009. In Cyber Warfare, Carr argued that international cyber attacks are predominantly deployed by non-state actors, who are sometimes encouraged and tolerated by state entities. Alternately, as Carr later told the Christian Science Monitor, it is private IT infrastructure, rather than government policy, that lies at the heart of US vulnirablity to international cyber attacks.

Jeffrey Carr has blogged about cyber security and warfare at Intelfusion.net (until September 1, 2010) and Forbes ' The Firewall.   Carr said he quit The Firewall after his post on Yuri Milner's relationship to the Russian FSB was taken down by Forbes at the requiest of Milner's lawyer.
