I run and co-run multiple newsletters, including the Frauvis Digest and Diversify Tech Professional and Student Edition. I have a very sophisticated system for keeping up with cybersecurity news, alerts, and resources. What resources or best practices do you recommend to keep up with it all? In cybersecurity, there is something new to learn every day. In cases like this, a greater awareness of biases and better structural support for women in positions like these might have forced this C-suite leader to approach the scenario more appropriately.Ĥ. In this scenario, it's hard to understand why someone with no experience would be trusted over someone with objectively much more, so it's easy to conclude that bias is involved-even if the executive didn't realize it or thought their bias was justified by some other reason that was ultimately irrelevant. While the woman spent months explaining why the control needed to be implemented, she was disregarded despite providing research, facts, and evidence of the effectiveness and necessity of implementing the control. The man was against implementing security controls-without a legitimate argument or reasoning.

One of the most mind-boggling experiences I saw was on a team I worked with on a compliance project.Ī C-suite leader trusted a man with no experience or background in the field over a woman with over 10+ years of experience specializing in information security, data privacy, and GDPR. This requires a mindset change, as for many, their unconscious biases may make it difficult to see a woman as qualified to lead - hence why more allies in the workplace are needed. However, they overlook those same women when advancement opportunities arise. I've seen many leaders hire women in cyber, then assume all their 'good deeds' are done. The direct manager follows up to ensure an appropriate career path within the company. I appreciate it when hiring managers ask if a candidate would be interested in a senior position during the interview process. The second would be to provide a career path for women to enter senior and executive positions.

A first crucial step would be to lower the barrier of entry by creating realistic entry-level positions. Leaders need to have trust, acknowledge and address bias, and put more women in leadership roles. To empower women, companies should aim to hire, retain, train, and promote women. What can cyber professionals/the cybersecurity industry do to empower and encourage women to pursue cyber careers?
