Denise Giusto\u00a0<\/span><\/b>Bilic<\/span><\/b>:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0I studied Systems Engineering<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>Back then, there were no<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>cybersecurity-related majors<\/span>\u00a0where I lived<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0so<\/span>\u00a0I took the initiative to be self-taught.<\/span>\u00a0I joined E<\/span>SET<\/span>\u00a0right out of college<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>to<\/span>\u00a0research mobile\u00a0<\/span>security<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>topics\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 including<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>malware threats.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our job<\/span>\u00a0as Security Researchers<\/span>\u00a0is<\/span>, essentially,\u00a0<\/span>to find\u00a0<\/span>unintended<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>behaviors<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>in<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>existing systems<\/span>\u00a0in order to improve th<\/span>em<\/span>;\u00a0<\/span>to find and correct flaws,\u00a0<\/span>and\u00a0<\/span>to make the system better.<\/span>\u00a0We track\u00a0<\/span>threats<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and look for attack vectors\u00a0<\/span>that can cause harm to both\u00a0<\/span>users and companies.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CP:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>I agree. And e<\/span>ven though\u00a0<\/span>most conferences are now remote because of COVID, another exciting part of the job\u00a0<\/span>was<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>to\u00a0<\/span>travel the world to speak at conferences.\u00a0<\/span>F<\/span>inding and maintaining a balance between personal life and corporate life can be hard with all the traveling<\/span>\u00a0though.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And sometimes managing people and discussing findings with clients can be difficult.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

DGB:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>Yes, i<\/span>n this job<\/span>, you might spend hours researching something.<\/span>..<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and find nothing<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>unprecedented<\/span>!

CP:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0When Denise and I started our career, we\u00a0<\/span>knew<\/span>\u00a0very few<\/span>\u00a0women in our\u00a0<\/span>field of work<\/span>.

DGB:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0Yes, and companies are starting to understand that it’s important to train the next generation of women for infosec jobs<\/span>, and to guarantee a non-toxic environment to allow their\u00a0<\/span>careers\u00a0<\/span>to flourish<\/span>. Universities are also jumping on board in Latin America to encourage gender diversity in the industry.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CP:\u00a0<\/span><\/b>We believe that having gender diversity in the role attracts other women\u00a0<\/span>to\u00a0<\/span>work<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>in cybersecurity<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>and technology\u00a0<\/span>in general.\u00a0<\/span>Creating<\/span>\u00a0a sense of community through\u00a0<\/span>Las\u00a0<\/span>Pibas<\/span>\u00a0de InfoSec<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>NotPinkCon<\/span><\/a>‘s<\/span>\u00a0annual conference<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u2013\u00a0<\/span>two organizations we are very proud to be part of\u00a0<\/span>\u2013\u00a0<\/span>has been\u00a0<\/span>a\u00a0<\/span>successful<\/span>\u00a0journey<\/span>\u00a0because of that core belief.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
