Chris Tarbell

Berkeley Research Group, LLP


Ex-FBI special agent Christopher Tarbell is one of the most successful law enforcement officials of all time. Dubbed “the Eliot Ness of online crime” by Newsweek, Tarbell is the man responsible for infiltrating the hacker group Anonymous and defeating the notorious dark web drug trafficking site Silk Road, called “the most sophisticated and extensive criminal marketplace on the Internet.” He led the tracking and arrests of two of the most infamous figures in cyberspace: Sabu, who was at one point the most influential hacker in the world, and Dread Pirate Roberts, who was later convicted for his involvement with Silk Road. Tarbell now works as a director for the strategic advisory and consulting firm Berkeley Research Group, LLP.
