We’ve discussed many topics and shared ideas and experience on variety of Security topics including Authentication and Cloud Migration. We also talked about is that we are seeing some positive numbers of women in leadership roles in general and specifically in technical C level roles. Deloitte Insights paper titled “Smashing IT’s glass ceiling – Perspectives from leading women CIOs” states the percentage of women technology chiefs is far higher than that of female CEOs and CFO.

Summary:
We've discussed many things with our amazing speakers Cheryl Kwan, Dana Kalsky and Shira Shamban who presented and shared ideas and their experience on variety of Security topics. There was one more topic that stood out, that I, personally, found inspirational and wanted to share - Public Speaking and Confidence.
- How do you make this first step and getting out there on a stage?
- Where can you get that confidence to share YOUR experience and bring your ideas to the table?
The answer is pretty simple - find this safe environment where you can start practicing. It can be women only meetup where you feel less stressed, it could be your family of close friends, the key is to start and make a progress, all the time!
