Oracle (ORCL) Chief Security Officer Mary Ann Davidson Leaves Company

Oracle Corporation (NYSE:ORCL) is one of the must-buy US stocks to invest in. On August 18, Oracle’s longtime Chief Security Officer, Mary Ann Davidson, one of the most prominent women in cybersecurity, announced her departure as part of a company restructuring. Davidson had been with Oracle for nearly 40 years and was one of the most prominent women in the cybersecurity industry.

The departure comes as Oracle is undergoing a broader corporate restructuring. The company has been trimming jobs to control costs while making heavy investments in AI infrastructure. While Oracle has not officially commented on Davidson’s exit, a June filing revealed that Robert Duhart, a Senior Vice President, now oversees day-to-day cybersecurity operations. Duhart previously served as chief information security officer for Walmart.

Davidson was Oracle’s first CSO and was a close advisor to co-founder Larry Ellison. She was credited with playing a key role in shaping the company’s product security policies and developing industry-leading systems and processes for testing Oracle’s code for vulnerabilities.
