Career Shifts And Holistically Managing Security Transitions With Dr. Wendy Ng


Listen Later

Careers often take interesting, meandering journeys and coalesce in unexpected ways. With a Ph.D. in Medical Genetics, today’s guest, Dr. Wendy Ng did not envision herself working in DevSecOps. However, she has combined her academic skills with technical prowess to now hold the role of DevSecOps Security Managing Advisor at Experian. We kick the episode off by learning more about Wendy’s diverse background, from her time in the lab to her first network engineering position and what piqued her interest in security. From there, we move to what she saw being a consultant, working across multiple industries. She realized the importance of not always chasing the shiny object and the research it takes to implement new security systems effectively. We then take a look at her time with Experian and what she’s gained from it so far. She has seen firsthand what it takes to manage security transitions holistically and shares these insights with us today. We round the show off by talking about the power of collaboration and knowledge sharing within an organization. Be sure to tune in today!
