How a Diverse Workforce Provides a Competitive Edge

Presented at ShellCon 2019, Oct. 12, 2019, 2:30 p.m. (20 minutes).

You may have heard about the lack of diversity in cybersecurity and wondered what that really meant to you. Perhaps you even asked yourself, "Why should I care?" The answer will resonate strongly with security professionals, who know they could never depend on only one tool during incident response. They use multiple tools, each one providing a different piece of valuable information and coming together to form a complete picture. This is analogous to the concept of team diversity, and during this discussion we'll explore how diversity can provide your operation with a competitive edge in the realm of cybersecurity.
