Cybersecurity and Being Human

Cybersecurity needs more professionals working in the field, and guest Nicole Bushong from Houston shares why. They explain critical issues today in digital crime, cyberwarfare, hacking, public safety, and diversity of the tech workforce. They also explain key aspects of their own path toward this field, including navigating the still male-majority field of cybersecurity, working in a women’s tech organization at The University of Houston, and getting educated while having dyslexia.
