Company: Northrop Grumman Information Systems
Making cyber happen. As the leader behind Northrop Grumman's cyber business, Warden made an impact by reeling in $1.5 billion in cyber contracts in fiscal 2014, just after assuming her role as head of the company's Information Systems division. But her interest in cyber extends beyond her company duties: She also expanded Northrop Grumman's involvement in the CyberPatriot national youth education program, which seeks to build tomorrow's cyber workforce. And under her leadership, the company launched the Advanced Cyber Technology Center to help find innovative ways to tackle the challenges facing its customers.
