Camelot Secure, a revolutionary cybersecurity company, announced that its CEO, Stan Oliver, has been named one of The Daily Record’s 2025 Most Admired CEOs in the category of Private Company with 50 or Fewer Employees.
Oliver earned this recognition for his visionary leadership, groundbreaking innovations in proactive cybersecurity, and steadfast commitment to diversity and workforce development — qualities that continue to shape Camelot Secure’s growth and industry impact.
Independent panel of judges
The Most Admired CEOs award honours talented business pioneers, higher education executives, and nonprofit directors across Maryland whose vision, professional accomplishments, and community service inspire those around them.
Honourees are selected by an independent panel of judges, with three-time winners inducted into the program’s Circle of Leadership.
Next generation of pioneers
“The 2025 Most Admired CEOs are extraordinary pioneers. They have impressive resumes, work to lead their companies to success, and are truly admired by their peers, teams, and in the community,” said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, managing director of BridgeTower Media/The Daily Record.
“They help to grow the next generation of pioneers in Maryland by empowering those who work for them, those they work with on community boards, and through mentoring. The Daily Record is pleased to recognise these outstanding CEOs.”
AI-driven CMMC compliance solution
Oliver’s recognition reflects a career defined by both innovation and inclusivity. Since founding Camelot Secure in 2022, he has spearheaded pioneering work in Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) Hunting, Attack Surface Management, Penetration Testing, and Threat Detection & Incident Response.
Under his leadership, the company has also developed award-winning tools like its AI-driven CMMC compliance solution, Myrddin, which integrates Natural Language Processing and Generative AI to streamline gap assessments.
Investment in economically depressed areas
Beyond technology, Oliver is currently employing 284 veterans and is dedicated to promoting diversity and fostering workforce development. Camelot Secure actively recruits from Historically Black Colleges and Universities, tribal and Hispanic communities, and women-owned organisations.
The company also advocates for investment in economically depressed areas to expand opportunities and talent pipelines. Internally, Oliver fosters a mentorship-driven, mission-focused culture that empowers diverse teams to achieve both professional and organisational goals.
Numerous additional awards
In addition to this latest honor, Oliver was also named a 2025 Influential Marylander in the Technology category by The Daily Record. He and Camelot Secure have received numerous additional awards in the past year, including the Security Innovator Award, Fortress Cybersecurity Award, Cybersecurity Excellence Award, and recognition as CEO of the Year by the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards.
The 2025 Most Admired CEOs will be honoured at a celebration on November 3, 2025, at the Hilton BWI in Linthicum Heights, MD. The event begins at 4:30 p.m. with networking, followed by the awards program at 5:30 p.m. and a dessert reception at 6:30 p.m.
