In our latest Fusion Fireside episode, we sit down with Keith Gordon, Executive Vice President and Chief Security Officer at CIBC, for a candid conversation about the evolving landscape of cybersecurity, fraud prevention, and the power of fusion.

Each year at the Datos Conference in Charlotte, our VP Eward Driehuis reconnects with Keith to exchange insights from the field. This year’s meeting turned into something special – a deep dive into the intersections of cyber threat intelligence, fraud defence, and organisational resilience.

Keith brings decades of experience from leadership roles at Ally Financial, Bank of America, and Capital One, where he shaped enterprise security strategies and led cyber threat intelligence and fraud teams. His journey – from building robust security frameworks to driving operational resilience – offers valuable lessons for today’s risk leaders.

In this episode, Keith shares:

• His personal and professional background, and what fuels his passion for security.

• How fusion – integrating threat intelligence, fraud detection, and operational risk – can transform financial institutions.

• Insights into the future of cyber defence and what he has learnt from his time at major banks.

• Reflections on collaboration, innovation, and the role of AI in modern threat landscapes.

This Fusion Fireside episode is a must-watch for anyone interested in the future of security leadership, cyber-fraud prevention, and cross-functional resilience.
