SEKUR PRIVATE DATA ANNOUNCES PHILIP OAKLEY AND KENNETH ROGERS AS MEMBERS OF STRATEGIC ADVISORY BOARD

Sekur Private Data Inc. has appointed the first two of several strategic advisory board members.

The board is expected to grow to other members in the coming weeks and months, to complement the various sectors Sekur is planning to offer its secure communications solutions and capabilities. The strategic advisory board will first focus on government and federal agencies, law enforcement, intelligence community, defence, and special operations sectors, reflecting the need for new capabilities to offer communications for controlled unclassified information in various government sectors.

The company is pleased to announce the following people as members of the strategic advisory board.

Philip A. Oakley -- clearance level TS/SCI

Mr. Oakley is a highly decorated intelligence professional and entrepreneur, holding dual master's degrees in strategic intelligence and national security from the Joint Military Intelligence College and Naval War College, respectively, alongside further graduate qualifications in education administration. He is a certified intelligence community officer, certified imagery analyst and certified counterintelligence agent -- credentials that underpin a career spanning elite military intelligence, academia and private enterprise.

His military career placed him at the highest levels of national security. Based at the Pentagon, Mr. Oakley prepared and delivered intelligence briefings to the President, Vice-President, Secretary of Defense and joint chiefs of staff, producing over 200 threat assessments to senior leadership. He was notably hand-picked by the Joint Staff J2 to attend the Naval War College -- a rare distinction for an army officer -- where he wrote a seminal paper recommending the establishment of a Homeland Defense Agency, a concept realized shortly after in the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. During a critical North Korea standoff, he developed an intelligence exchange program that increased production by over 200 per cent, briefing general officers and the Undersecretary of Defense directly.

Mr. Oakley was assigned to duty stations, including, but not limited to, the National Ground Intelligence Center (NGIC), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) Bolling Air Force Base, U.S. Forces Korea and the J2 Pentagon. Among his assignments, he was leading an element that prepared the daily intelligence briefings for the Secretary of Defense and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and provided briefings to the President of the United States. He is also a certified intelligence community officer (ICO). He has numerous military awards, including multiple army accommodation medals, good conduct medals, meritorious service medals and several defence meritorious service medals.

In academia, Mr. Oakley served as both adjunct and full-time professor of strategic intelligence at the Joint Military Intelligence College, developing curriculum for over 30 courses and mentoring dozens of graduate thesis committees. He also was personally chosen by the Commanding General of the U.S. Army Intelligence School to shape requirements for army-wide strategic intelligence officers.

As founder and chief executive officer of i3 Integrative Creative Solutions, Mr. Oakley has translated this extraordinary background into a thriving service-disabled veteran owned business, building sales teams that have exceeded $1.6-billion over 15 years, delivering cutting-edge technology solutions -- including Palantir, IBM and Pixia -- to federal, state and intelligence community clients.

Mr. Oakley stated: "I was honoured to be asked to be part of the Sekur strategic advisory board. Over the last 16 years, I've been part of several technology companies' sales and success in federal sales spaces with over $1.6-billion (U.S.) in sales within my group of companies. Besides the technical differentiators that will greatly impact the controlled but unclassified information (CUI) environment, Sekur has assembled an amazing team of federal experienced individuals, joining in the coming weeks. The soon-to-be announced names greatly enhance the credibility of this amazing technology. Simply put, the investment in the federal team speaks volumes about the direction this innovative company is headed in."

Kenneth D. Rogers

Mr. Rogers is a seasoned senior government and technology executive with a rare blend of experience across five U.S. federal agencies, multinationals, start-ups and global NGOs (non-governmental organizations). He retired in 2024 from the U.S. State Department and was awarded the prestigious Director General's Cup during the foreign affairs day celebration in 2025. This award recognizes individuals from the contemporary generation of career civil and foreign service employees who have demonstrated exceptional service and commitment and was only issued to two members in 2024.

With over 15 years at the U.S. Department of State, where he rose to serve as deputy CIO for business management and planning, IT comptroller, and chief digital strategist. In these roles, he held direct budgetary responsibility of approximately $1.3-billion (U.S.) while overseeing a global $3.8=billion IT portfolio spanning 85,000 personnel across more than 300 locations worldwide. He led IT strategic work force planning, acquisitions, enterprise architecture and portfolio management, while serving as the primary liaison between the State Department, the White House, and the Office of Management and Budget. Key achievements included implementing FITARA, developing the department's cloud strategy and re-engineering IT acquisition across the organization.

Prior to his State Department tenure, Mr. Rogers served as chief information officer at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Science & Technology Directorate, where he oversaw a $75-million IT portfolio supporting a $1.3-billion homeland security R&D (research and development) organization. His remit encompassed IT investments, infrastructure interoperability across DHS labs, DOE National Labs and Academic Centers of Excellence, ensuring full regulatory compliance across a complex and sensitive technology environment.

Alongside his government roles, Mr. Rogers served as faculty chair for cyberspace strategies at the National Defense University's College of Information and Cyberspace, educating military, civilian and international leaders on securing and managing information technology at the enterprise level. He has also advised foreign governments on national IT governance strategies, reflecting a breadth of influence that extends well beyond domestic policy.

Mr. Rogers was immediately attracted to Sekur's solutions set because of its ability to provide more secure communications between the Department of States and its diplomatic counterparts in over 200 countries using voice and video call, messaging and e-mail capabilities. These tools also provide other civilian agencies with similar needed capabilities, including the Department of Homeland Security's engagement with first responders' nationwide.

Mr. Rogers stated: "I am honoured to be part of the Sekur leadership team and look forward to bringing this groundbreaking secure messaging and communications platform to industry and government. Sekur delivers a world-class end-to-end encrypted solution designed to ensure that sensitive documents and information are shared only with their intended audiences -- privately, securely and with confidence."

Alain Ghiai, chief executive officer of Sekur, commented: "We are honoured to welcome Philip Oakley and Kenneth Rogers to our strategic advisory board. Their expertise will be instrumental in introducing Sekur's secure communications capabilities across the defence, intelligence community, law enforcement and federal spaces -- particularly in filling the void that exists in the controlled unclassified information (CUI) space. We look forward to expanding the board and working toward becoming an essential provider of secure communications to all who serve the U.S. government, domestically and globally."
