The Security Poverty Line, Part 1 – Wendy Nather – SCW #60
Securing an organization means more than just spending money. For those that fall below the "security poverty line," many other dynamics come into play that make it harder for them to accomplish even the basics. How do we help them rather than scolding them?
Wendy Nather is the Senior Research Initiatives Director at 1Password. She previously led strategic engagements at Cisco and served as Research Director at both the Retail ISAC and 451 Research, where she covered application security, threat intelligence, security services, and emerging technologies.
A former CISO in both the public and private sectors, Wendy headed IT security for the EMEA region of Swiss Bank Corporation’s investment banking division (now UBS) and for the Texas Education Agency. She is co-author of The Cloud Security Rules and has been recognized as an SC Magazine “Woman in IT Security Power Player,” a Reboot Leadership Awards “Influencer,” and a 2021 inductee into the Infosecurity Europe Hall of Fame.
Wendy serves on the board of Sightline Security, is a Senior Fellow with the Atlantic Council’s Cyber Statecraft Initiative, and sits on the IST Ransomware Task Force steering committee. She is based in Fort Collins, Colorado.
