A former colleague of Michael Burnham and the lone survivor aboard a Section 31 ship, secretly possessed by the rogue AI Control.
Kamran Gant appears in Through the Valley of Shadows. When a Section 31 ship checks in ten minutes later than usual, Michael Burnham and Spock investigate and find its entire crew dead except Gant, an old colleague of Burnham's.
Gant has been possessed by Control, the artificial intelligence trying to obtain the Sphere data, and he attempts to transfer Control into Burnham's body. Spock stops him using magnetism, and the pair escape back to Discovery just before the Section 31 fleet arrives.
