The story

Founded by Greg Hoglund in 2003.1

The company was founded by Greg Hoglund in 2003. In 2008, it joined the McAfee Security Innovation Alliance. The CEO made presentations at the Black Hat Briefings, the RSA Conference, and other computer security conferences. HBGary also analyzed the GhostNet and Operation Aurora events.

HBGary Federal had been set up with Aaron Barr as CEO instead of Hoglund to provide services and tools to the US government, which might require security clearance. As HBGary Federal could not meet revenue projections, in early 2011 negotiations about the sale of HBGary Federal were in progress with two interested companies.

HBGary was acquired by ManTech International in February 2012.
