Gain insights into success stories, challenges, and archetypes encountered during this effort. Learn how the initiative reverses the traditional approach by teaching business colleagues the language of cyber, rather than expecting cybersecurity professionals to adapt to business language. Discover strategies for exploiting existing and new talent, challenging knee-jerk reactions, and addressing the gender gap in cybersecurity. Examine the ecosystem and potential solutions for increasing diversity in the field, with speakers Lisset Diaz Cervantes and Rosanna Kurrer sharing their experiences and perspectives on this critical issue.
