NEW YORK, May 16, 2022 - NYNOG (New York Network Operators Group), a New York based nonprofit organization connecting New York network operators and technology professionals by providing educational events and programs, announces that Dave Temkin, an original co-founder of NYNOG, will lead the organization as its new President, replacing co-founder, Christian Koch. In addition, NYNOG announces the addition of three new board members.

Currently, Temkin leads infrastructure and cloud initiatives at security firm, Imperva, and he holds advisory and leadership roles with DRIVENETS, Community IX, and Catchpoint.
