French ID management and tech company IDEMIA, which has U.S. headquarters in Reston, announced Tuesday it has named Andrew Boyd as president and CEO of IDEMIA National Security Solutions (NSS), located in Alexandria.

Boyd was most recently the senior vice president of defense and intelligence at Reston-based Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC). In his new role, he will oversee IDEMIA’s defense, national security and classified missions work.

“Andrew brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to IDEMIA National Security Solutions with a proven track-record of generating significant growth and profit throughout his career,” Ed Casey, CEO of IDEMIA Identity & Security North America, said in a statement. “His unique experience working in both the federal and defense space make him an ideal candidate to lead our Foreign Ownership, Control and Influence (FOCI) mitigated business unit that focuses on the U.S. National Security sector.”

Before working with SAIC, Boyd served in leadership roles with the U.S. Air Force, Unisys Federal, Engility and Northrop Grumman Corp.

Founded in 2017, NSS is the FOCI mitigated IDEMIA affiliate. It supports U.S. national security interests of the United States of America through intelligence services including identification services, installation services and credential security services.
