Forget ChatGPT, the most overhyped security tool is technology itself, Wiz warns

Of course Wiz, being a technology provider, argues that it does this best. Still, when Herzberg says that"every infrastructure owner, every dev owner," should have visibility and understanding of their own risk, she makes a good point.

"That's the only way to scale cloud security, because you have hundreds of developers, you have small security teams and infrastructure is de-centrally owned," she added."So the risk also has to be de-centrally owned."Part of the solution is to look beyond the usual pool of applications: white men with prior cybersecurity experience, Rappaport said. Instead companies need to explore further outside the usual pool and find new talent.

"Technology is part of the solution. But having said that, we need to be more diverse, and more open as a community," Rappaport said, during an interview with"I'm sure most of the people you talk to in leadership positions are men, and I would love to see that change. We're too homogeneous, and we need to provide more opportunities.

"There are also a lot of challenges around being a good manager" and having skills outside of strictly infosec knowledge that a diverse group or people can bring to the cybersecurity table, she added."Lack of prior experience, unfortunately, scares women away."found more than half of women believe the security industry has a gender-bias problem that results in unequal pay and support.

But women, even more than men, according to the survey, reinforce these biases: 71 percent of women think cybersecurity is"too complex" a career, and more women than men believe men are seen as a better fit for technology fields.— but one that should be top of mind as we near International Women's Day. And, really, every day.
