Sue Gordon, a 30-year veteran of the national security sector and former principal deputy director of national intelligence (PDDNI), is slated to speak on October 28 at the National Chicken Council’s 66th Annual Conference at the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington, D.C.

Prior to assuming the role of PDDNI, Gordon served as the deputy director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) from 2015 to 2017. In this role, she helped to lead the agency and manage the National System of Geospatial Intelligence.

Before her assignment with NGA, Gordon served for 27 years at the Central Intelligence Agency and was involved in some of the most monumental operations in U.S. history, including the raid of Osama Bin Laden. In 1998, Gordon designed and spearheaded the formation of In-Q-Tel – a private, non-profit company that accelerates the development and delivery of cutting-edge technologies to national security agencies.

A graduate from Duke University, Gordon played power forward for the Duke Blue Devils women’s basketball team and was the only three-year captain in the team’s history.

Having served more than three decades in the Intelligence Community, she advises audiences that protection from historic advantage and physical distance has been eradicated and that the balance of power has changed. Gordon will share insights about our current cyber security challenges, how they will likely play out on the global stage, and what organizations need to know to protect themselves. She will provide actionable strategies for businesses to adapt to these new challenges.
