In a world where cybersecurity is often misunderstood -  reduced to hoodies, hackers, and heavy coding - this myth-busting session offers a refreshing, human-centered perspective.

​

Delivered in a lighthearted storytelling format, this talk shines a spotlight on the diverse, impactful, and often invisible roles women play in cybersecurity - not just as coders, but as strategists, auditors, and AI-savvy problem solvers.

​

Through her personal journey from childhood dreams of NASA to leading payment security at Southeast Asia's leading superapp, Raghavi shares:

​

• What a “real” day in cybersecurity looks like

• Why coding is helpful but not required to make an impact in the field

• How women are leading across domains - from AI ethics to data protection

• Tangible ways to explore or pivot into cybersecurity, no matter your background

​

Attendees will leave with practical takeaways, fresh perspective, and one powerful reminder:
“You don’t need a cape to be a protector in the digital world”
