The Women in Cybersecurity Report, hosted by Cybercrime Magazine Deputy Editor Amanda Glassner, highlights the latest breakthroughs, voices, and stories from women leading the charge in cybersecurity.

In this special episode, we cover Black Hat(HER), a new platform created to address the persistent underrepresentation of women in cybersecurity.

Built around the global reach and community of Black Hat, Black Hat(HER) is a series of initiatives, events, and networking experiences designed to support, connect, and elevate women across the cybersecurity industry.

From emerging talent to senior leaders, the platform creates opportunities for meaningful connection, visibility, knowledge-sharing, and career growth across the wider Black Hat ecosystem.

Joining us at Black Hat USA 2026 in Las Vegas is Suzy Pallett, President, Cyber & Gaming (Black Hat & GDC) at Informa, and Laura Stebbing, VP Content at Black Hat.
