Mr. de Haan brings decades of expertise in cyber defense, digital risk management and compliance automation across the financial sector, governmental, and multinational enterprises.

His experience with enterprise-scale resilience and regulated infrastructure will strengthen our ability to deliver what no other platform can: an AI-native, quantum-resilient Secured Data Fabric that unifies identity, compliance, digital assets, and governance in one single control layer. Just as Palantir reshaped defense and intelligence, HUB is seeking to redefine compliance and financial trust.”

Mr. de Haan will lead HUB’s cybersecurity innovation agenda, driving the integration of AI-supervised threat detection, post-quantum cryptography, and perpetual KYC (pKYC) into the Company’s Enterprise Intelligence Grid.

I look forward to building this future alongside a team that seeks to redefine the meaning of enterprise cybersecurity.”
