In preparation for the 2020 elections, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI); its National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC) and Cyber Threat Intelligence Integration Center (CTIIC); along with the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), today held a classified election security workshop for state election officials from across the country. 

As the Principal Deputy Director of US National Intelligence, and the highest-ranking female leader in our intelligence community, Sue Gordon has faced more impossible challenges than most of us can imagine.

In public testimony today before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Director of National Intelligence Daniel R. Coats presented the Worldwide Threat Assessment of the U.S. Intelligence Community and outlined the most significant global security threats facing the nation.

Chairman Burr, Vice-Chairman Warner, and Members of the Committee... I am here today, along with leaders of the Intelligence Community, to provide you an overview of the national security threats facing our nation. But before I do, I would like to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of the men and women that make up the Intelligence Community.

Chairman Burr, Vice Chairman Warner, Members of the Committee, thank you for the invitation to offer the United States Intelligence Community’s 2019 assessment of threats to US national security.
