Alex Stamos (born 1979) is a Greek-American cybersecurity expert and business executive who works on improving the security and safety of the Internet.

He is the chief security officer at Corridor and a lecturer at Stanford University. Prior to this, he was the chief security officer at Facebook and Yahoo, the co-founder of iSEC Partners, and the founder of the Stanford Internet Observatory.

He departed from Facebook following disagreement with other executives about how to address the Russian government's use of its platform to spread disinformation during the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
