The lack of diversity in cybersecurity and technology in general is no secret, but it wasn’t always that way. Soviet-Era Russia and other eastern countries have seen more equality in certain industries, and that was a difference that guest Elena Elkina certainly noticed in her transition to American life. As Sr. Privacy & Data Protection Management Executive for Aleada Consulting, she discusses gender roles, seeking challenges, and starting her nonprofit and consulting startup.

In today’s episode, my co-host Sean Martin and I have a fun chat with Elena Elkina, co-founder of WISP – Women in Security and Privacy – to kick off and introduce ITSPmagazine’s strategic partnership with WISP! In this short conversation, we get to know a bit about Elena (besides being on the board of WISP, she is partner of Aleada Consulting), Women in Security and Privacy (a non-profit whose mission is to advance, advocate for, and increase participation of women in the Privacy and Information Security fields), and why we decided to partner with each other. ITSPmagazine chooses our partnerships very carefully. Our primary mission is to raise awareness for cybersecurity by making it understandable, accessible and part of everyone’s life. But we believe that our voice alone is never going to be loud enough. No matter what we can do as individual organizations, our influence is never going to be as strong and powerful as that of a community of organizations coming together, united by the same passion, goal and vision. Women in Security & Privacy (WISP) is a fiscally-sponsored project of Community Initiatives that promotes the development, advancement and inclusion of women in security and privacy. So teaming up with the WISP just makes sense and we’re super excited about all that we can and will do together!
