Prior to Cybercom, he served as commander of the 24th Air Force and Air Force Cyber at Joint Base San Antonio in Texas.

Latiff is a retired Air Force major general and former director of advanced systems and technology and deputy director for systems engineering at the National Reconnaissance Office.

During his military career, he served as program director for the service branch’s E-8 JSTARS surveillance aircraft, commander of the NORAD Cheyenne Mountain Operations Center and vice commander of the Air Force Electronic Systems Center.

Polaris CEO Peter Cannito said Latiff’s and McLaughlin’s guidance and experience as technology experts and military strategists would help the company navigate through space and cyber domains.
