Walking the Talk for Diversity and Inclusion in Cybersecurity [Splunk Enterprise]

We believe that to best defend against global security threats, an organization needs defenders who represent the diverse world that we live in. Every business will benefit greatly by bringing more people to the table with varying skills, backgrounds, leadership and views to combat the diverse adversaries out there. Here at Splunk, we have created initiatives like the "Developing Superwomen in Cybersecurity" program that works to diversify and equalize the cybersecurity workforce to women and other underrepresented groups. Come hear how we are taking action by making cybersecurity accessible to all with this program and some practical advice on how you can do the same when you go back to your organization! You'll receive tips on how to make information security inclusive to all with ways of engaging your staff at various levels and receive a blueprint for running your own gamified security experiences, allowing you to up-level staff while embracing their unique talents and backgrounds.
