Hello and welcome to this episode of XLM&Co. In a 2017 study into female representation in the cyber security industry, Kaspersky Lab delved into an industry where only 11 percent of the professionals were women. The study showed that, contrary to the widespread notion that women did not possess the necessary skillsets, they were in fact equipped with all they needed to excel in these positions already.

Based on this observation we asked Virginia Da Cunha, Deputy Cybersecurity Operations Centre Manager at Excellium Services and Jelena Zelenovic President of the association ‘Women Cyber Force’ about the importance of gender diversity and equality in cybersecurity. An unfiltered perspective from two women at the heart of the cyber action. This episode of XLM&Co is brought to you by cybersecurity consulting and technology integration company Excellium Services.
