Cyabra, Inc., a company whose AI-powered platform helps governments and enterprises detect coordinated manipulation and protect digital trust, announced on August 11 the appointment of Keith Noble, PhD, as vice president of government sales to support the company’s continued expansion in the public sector, driven by surging demand for narrative intelligence across federal, state, and local agencies. As governments face escalating disinformation campaigns, information warfare, and coordinated online manipulation, Cyabra believes the need for real-time, evidence-based narrative intelligence continues to grow.
Cyabra has recently achieved several milestones in its public sector business, the company said. Recent key milestones include expanded government distribution through a strategic distribution relationship with Carahsoft to streamline procurement for public sector institutions, international customer growth through the addition of a major new European public sector client to combat regional digital threats, and being named a Market Shaper in the inaugural June 2026 Gartner Emerging Market Quadrant for Narrative Intelligence — Startup Vendors.
Cyabra supports governments and public institutions dealing with influence operations, information warfare, and coordinated online manipulation. When online activity becomes fast-moving and difficult to interpret, Cyabra provides clear, evidence-based understanding of which actors are involved, how activity is coordinated, and what is actually shaping outcomes. By turning large-scale online activity into structured insight, Cyabra helps institutions assess situations accurately, protect credibility, and act with confidence when clarity is essential.
“Governments worldwide are confronting an unprecedented threat environment online, driving a growing need for proactive narrative intelligence,” said Cyabra Chief Revenue Officer Emmanuel Heymann. “Our growth, marked by key wins and industry recognition, reflects how vital our capabilities have become to public sector institutions and Keith’s deep background in national security and open-source intelligence makes him uniquely equipped to lead our U.S. public sector expansion as we scale to meet this demand.”
Keith E. Noble, Ph.D. is an executive and former senior national intelligence officer with more than 20 years of experience leading complex, multi-jurisdictional operations across four continents. He has built and directed large-scale intelligence enterprises at the CIA’s Open-Source Center, driven data strategy and advanced analytics at the U.S. Department of State and co-founded an international open-source intelligence firm in Abu Dhabi serving government and private sector clients across the Middle East. The company believes his experience in national security, open-source intelligence and data analytics will support Cyabra’s efforts to expand the use of its platform by public sector organizations seeking to identify and understand coordinated and inauthentic online activity.
“I have seen first-hand the kind of disruption that misinformation can have on public institutions,” said Noble. “With tools like generative AI lowering the cost of producing inauthentic content, public sector leaders need clear, structured insight into online threats. Cyabra’s technology is designed to help distinguish authentic discourse from orchestrated manipulation, helping leaders to make confident, data-driven decisions.”
