I have been in Cyber Security for over 12 years. My expertise is in identity and access management and authentication in the banking and finance industry. Over the years i have worked from start up's to established vendors.In partnership with C Vision international, i came across the idea of not just my own experience but wanted other leaders in the world of Cyber security to tell their story of the glass ceiling and that sometimes-invisible barrier to success.My podcast "Cyber Glass Ceiling" is a light hearted discussion with industry leaders and the challenges they faced getting to the top of their profession, whether they be a woman, person of colour, LGBTQ, or neurodiverse.
