A framework for technology sharing under pillar II of the trilateral AUKUS security pact must be established to ensure the arrangement is transformative, according to veteran leader of the United States intelligence community, Susan Gordon.

Ms Gordon, speaking on the United States Studies Centre’s latest ‘Technology and Security’ podcast, said its not good enough to “develop all the piece parts and somehow they’re going to magically come together”.

Across her extensive intelligence career, Ms Gordon was previously the principal deputy director of National Intelligence, National Geospatial Intelligence Agency deputy director, and spent 29 years at the CIA, where she led the establishment of the CIA’s venture capital firm In-Q-Tel.
