A few years ago, the topic for the 3rd episode for the #RealTalk with Aaron Bregg podcast about Diversity
And Inclusion in the Cybersecurity Industry. To this date it is one of the most downloaded episodes. Since that episode was publish a LOT has changed in the world. I felt that it was time to revisit the topic but with a little bit of a twist. The need for a twist comes from the fact that DEI in cybersecurity still where it needs to be.
As luck would have it I had met Angela Hill a few years back when Matt Nelson and I were looking to have her as a keynote speaker. While due to scheduling issues it didn't work out, it did lead to this moment.
Join me as I have a #RealTalk conversation about 'Rethinking DEI' and more specifically focusing on Latinas in Cybersecurity. Angela Hill from Palo Alto Networks, Samantha Bolet. from TikTok, Vanessa Morales. from NBC Universal who are some of the co-founders of Latinas In Cyber challenge me and themselves into taking a different approach to solving this problem.
Talking Points:
- What kind of restrictions do you run into? E.g. Cultural roadblocks, etc.
- What issues do you run into when it comes to showcasing your 'real world' experience?
- The importance of having a security 'brand' - Vanessa
- How do we need to change our approach to DEI?
- The importance of DEI in academia and starting to embrace creativity - Sam
A HUGE thanks to SevCo, Cadre and NetSPI today the podcast donated $500 to support Latinas in Cyber!
