Chair, Global Risk + Management and Partner, Morrison & Foerster

 

John P. Carlin, former Assistant Attorney General for the U.S. Department of Justice's (DOJ) National Security Division (NSD), chairs Morrison & Foerster's Global Risk and Crisis Management team and advises industry-leading organizations in sensitive cyber and other national security matters, white collar investigations, and government enforcement actions.

 

Mr. Carlin has served as a top-level official in both Republican and Democratic administrations, most recently as Assistant Attorney General for National Security, the DOJ's highest-ranking national security lawyer. In this capacity, for which Mr. Carlin was nominated by President Obama and overwhelmingly confirmed by the Senate on a bipartisan basis, he oversaw nearly 400 employees responsible for protecting the nation against terrorism, espionage, and cyber and other national security threats.

 

Prior to assuming his role in the NSD, Mr. Carlin served as Chief of Staff and Senior Counsel to Robert S. Mueller, III, former director of the FBI, where he helped lead the FBI's evolution to meet growing and changing national security threats, including cyber threats. Mr. Carlin also held positions as National Coordinator of the DOJ's Computer Hacking and Intellectual Property Program and Assistant United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, where he prosecuted cyber, fraud, and public corruption matters, among others, trying more than 40 cases to verdict.

 

Mr.Carlin is now chair of a new program on cybersecurity at The Aspen Institute. He has been featured or cited as a leading authority on cyber and economic espionage matters by numerous major media outlets, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times, USA Today, CBS's 60 Minutes, NBC's Meet the Press, PBS's CharlieRose and Newshour,ABC's Nightline and Good Morning America, NPR, CNN, and Vanity Fair, among others.

 

Mr.Carlin, who joined DOJ through the Attorney General's Honors Program, is a five-time recipient of the Department of Justice Award for Special Achievement and has drawn bipartisan praise, with U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch calling him "a trusted and tireless leader" and former U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey calling him "a superb civil servant." He earned his Juris Doctorate from Harvard Law School, where he received the Samuel J. Heyman Fellowship for Federal Government Service and served as Articles editor for the Harvard Journal on Legislation, and earned his Bachelor of Arts degree, magna cum laude, from Williams College, where he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.
