Our hosts Alan Shimel and Mat Newfield are joined by Karen Moore of Unisys, Michelle Beistle of the Nature Conservancy and Mitch Ashley of MediaOps/ASG for a discussion on Women In Tech. The best cybersecurity leaders know the value of gender diversity, how to attract and develop top talent, how to create opportunities for growth and advancement, and how to recognize, uncover and remove hidden biases. But our objective is not only to improve diversity, we must also focus on removing gender issues. Our goal should be to achieve “people” in tech where gender issues are eliminated from the equation, where our differences are appreciated rather than labeled.

How do we, or should we, enforce policies such as keeping routers, Wi-Fi access points, computers, gaming devices, tablets, IoT devices, and more? Join our panel of cybersecurity leaders and experts as we examine these questions and more.
