"Women in Technology"
Sun, 09 Oct 2016 10:32AM
Two weeks ago I was at an ISACA Scotland Chapter event where they mentioned an upcoming ‘Women in IT’ event to be held in November. This is all great stuff to get more women involved in security / IT in general but I feel events like these are advertised to the wrong people - I highly doubt there will be many teenagers, students or young adults in the audience who aren't already on the IT path. It'll be a group of mostly established IT practitioners who are feminists and collectively nod their heads that we need to fix this gender imbalance issue without actually doing much about it apart from talks like this. Perhaps I'm too much of a cynic...!!
