Dr. Margaret Layton (Meg) is currently Director of Engineering for the Cyber Security Services organization of Symantec and has been working in technology for over two decades. In 2001, she joined a start-up company that was acquired by Symantec, and she has since been working in various roles within the company - both on products and working on the intelligence that fuels the front-line responders. Prior to joining Symantec, Meg worked as a Director of IT for a telecommunications company doing business in Africa, which is where she first discovered her passion for security. There is nothing like protecting networks in developing countries in the middle of a civil war to really drive forward what security needs. Meg maintains several certifications in the Cyber Security realm that she is passionate about, including both the CISSP and CSSLP certifications from ISC(2), and GIAC certifications for Incident Handling, Forensic Analysis, and Penetration Testing.
