Geek women dish about their geeky cybersec careers

In honor of Women's History Month, we're agog at the two shining tech stars featured in our latest episode.

One snippet of their advice on empowering she-geeks: Hire women because they’re good at what they do, not just because you need to tick off a checkbox.
