About the Person

Ty Cooper was promoted from OGE`s chief information security officer to CIO, he decided to resolve a few conflicts and foster his own high standards - mainly in the area of keeping vulnerable Windows PCs compliant with federal security regulations.   After Cooper became CIO in 2009, the first major IT project he undertook - and the biggest one in the agency`s 30-year history - was to move all of OGE`s 100 machines to a virtual client environment.   Cooper joined the federal government out of high school, working as a file clerk at the U.S. Information Agency, an independent foreign affairs agency supporting U.S. foreign policy and national interests abroad.   He spent the next 40 years of his career between either working directly for the government or for contractors supporting its work, including 10 years with the Washington, D.C. Department of Employment Services as a labor economist.
