Jennifer Ewbank, who has been serving in the federal government for more than three decades, will step down from her role as deputy director for digital innovation at the CIA.
In a LinkedIn post announcing the move, Ewbank said she will transition to the private sector, where she intends to continue her mission of strengthening U.S. national security.
In her current role at the CIA, she leads efforts to advance the development and integration of cyber and digital capabilities across all mission areas, including cybersecurity, enterprise information technology, open source collection and reporting, data strategy and artificial intelligence.
Ewbank, a two-time Wash100 awardee, also oversees the offices of the agency’s digital chief information officer, chief information security officer and chief data officer.
She began her career at the State Department as a foreign service officer before joining the CIA.
