Gergana Karadzhova-Dangela wants to send the ladder back down to the next generation of incident responders
Summary: Gergana Karadzhova-Dangela, a consultant with Cisco Talos Incident Response, responded to an active attack against a German public agency that she says could have potentially affected millions of people. She now spends time outside work running "Discover Cyber Workshop for Women" sessions, including one in early June with Cisco Qatar and the University of Doha for Science and Technology and another a week later in Berlin with ReDI School of Digital Integration.
Key Takeaway: Karadzhova-Dangela describes defenders as overwhelmed, with many projects running at once and limited resources to cover the risks they already know about - the same constraint that shapes how a single active incident against a public agency gets staffed.
