Daniel Dubree is responsible for the operations of the bureau's information technology systems worldwide.

The FBI has announced the promotion of Daniel Dubree to assistant director of the bureau's Information Technology Operations Division.

In 1984, he began work as a computer programmer at the FBI’s Technical Services Division.
