Former Mossad chief Efraim Halevy will be joining Israeli private intelligence firm Black Cube, which has been mired in international scandals. Halevy will sit on the company’s board of directors, head its client screening committee, and serve as a senior adviser on operational and intelligence issues, a source told Yedioth Ahronoth.
This is another significant recruitment for the company, which has a number of former senior members of Israel’s security and intelligence services on its board of directors, including former Mossad chief Meir Dagan, former police commissioner Yohanan Danino and former national security advisor Maj. Gen. Giora Eiland.
Halevy, who was born in London in 1934, is a descendant of an illustrious family of rabbis.
Since its establishment by Dan Zorella and Avi Yanus in 2011, Black Cube has become one of the world’s most famous private intelligence and investigation companies. It is known to offer prosperous and powerful private sector companies assistance in resolving business disputes, but it has often been associated with problematic customers and international scandals.
For example, the company helped disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein gather information about victims of his alleged sex crimes as well as the journalists who collected information about him.
