On International Women’s Day, we spoke with Gadalia Montoya Weinberg O'Bryan, Founder and CEO of Dapple Security, about identity security, mentorship, and the myth of “buying” cybersecurity.
“Cybersecurity cannot be treated like insurance, where protection is simply purchased through annual premiums.”
Key insights:
• Biometrics can offer strong authentication and convenient access
• Organizational policy often lags behind technology
• Security systems should protect users without making access difficult
#WomenInCybersecurity #IdentitySecurity #Biometrics #CyberLeadership #TechNadu
For our International Women’s Day series, Bltz AI CEO Arlene Watson discusses AI defense and governance with TechNadu.
“Security teams think the engineering team owns the fix, the engineering team thinks the security team owns the policy, and the gap becomes the breach path.”
Key themes:
• Closed-loop AI defense
• Governance embedded into runtime controls
• Structural risks like shadow AI and access creep
GenAI is pushing cybersecurity toward Day Zero containment.
In TechNadu’s LeadHer in Security interview, Neha Garg, CEO & Co-Founder of Arambh Labs, explains:
“Noise is the enemy of security. An alert becomes truly actionable when you add Identity and Intent.”

Harriet Farlow, CEO & Founder of Mileva Security Labs, on building AI security before it was mainstream:
“Innovation often looks lonely before it looks obvious.”
Most AI failures begin with a literacy gap.
“If we don’t secure the social layer as well as the technical one, we will face risks far larger than model exploits.”
#AISecurity #WomenInCybersecurity #CyberResilience #LeadHerInSecurity
Yogita Parulekar, CEO & Founder of Invi Grid Inc., on AI and multi-cloud sprawl:
Admin access becomes permanent.
AI agents operate with their own identities.
Controls need to operate in real time.
“Security is not a product, but a process.”
#WomenInCybersecurity #AIGovernance #CloudSecurity #DevSecOps #CyberRisk
Aishwarya Gore:
“Honestly, most compromises we see still start with phishing.”
“Attackers don’t think in severities. They think in steps.”
“Controls fail most often not because they’re weak, but because they’re partially implemented or inconsistently applied.”

#WomenInCybersecurity #VulnerabilityManagement #AppSec #LeadHerInSecurity
Ashley M. Rose, CEO of Living Security, on human risk:
“Attackers don’t break systems first, they break trust.”
Slack & Teams aren’t just new channels — “trust inside them is assumed,” and human decision points under automation are critical.

Nabanita De, CEO of Privacy License, on AI privacy:
“When personal data is encoded into a neural network, it no longer exists as discrete records. It is diffused across millions of parameters.”
“Without translators across business, ethics, and security domains, privacy fails in implementation.”
