Advocating for Hackers with Bugcrowd's Chloé Messdaghi

 According to Bugcrowd’s 2019 Inside the Mind of a Hacker Guide, a mere 4% of the global hacking community are women. But the underlying cause of this gender imbalance is not solely due to whether or not we’re hiring with diversity in mind. There’s also the internal discrimination that can drive people away.

Chloé Messdaghi (@chloemessdaghi)is a security researcher advocate at Bugcrowd and a humanitarian advocate in the cybersecurity world. She's been presenting her talk "How to Fix the Diversity Gap in Cybersecurity" at multiple conferences to shine a light on stories of inequalities that hackers face. 

 On this episode, we talk about her conference presentation, her work at Bugcrowd, and her really cute Shiba Inu pup, Sherlock!
