We walk through Jacqui's story of getting into security, her challenges in landing a job, what got her to start what would become such an influential security community, the future for AWSN and how organisations can do more to attract a more diverse culture.
Knowing Jacqui over the years has given me some insight into the incredible demand in starting a security community. Impressively, Jacqui decided "to take 6 months and get it (AWSN) up and running properly!" and is now getting paid for her AWSN work.
