019 Women in Intelligence: Navigating a Male-Dominated Field

In today’s episode we hear from three women working in cybersecurity intelligence. We’ll learn about their sometimes indirect journeys toward tech, challenges they faced along the way, and we’ll get their advice for navigating what is still a male-dominated field. Emily Wilson is director of analysis at Terbium Labs, where she leads a team focused on exploring and analyzing data from the dark web. Lauren Zabierek is a senior analyst with Recorded Future, providing threat intelligence for its customers. Teresa Shea is currently an executive vice president at In-Q-Tel. Prior to that she spent 35 years at the NSA, rising to the role of director of signals intelligence before retiring from the agency in 2015.
