    #0224: (CT) Capturing Mentorship & Intellectual Capital

    In Part Two of this three-part conversation, we moved from understanding the importance of mentorship to exploring where and how to find the right mentor. Where should you start, and what should you look for in a mentoring relationship that aligns with your goals and career? We discussed ways to find mentors through professional organizations, networking, and other connections, as well as what makes a mentor the right fit for you. We also explored the value of internal mentors and how mentoring within your own organization can offer different perspectives, opportunities, and insights than an external mentor. Join us for Part Two as we look more closely at building meaningful mentoring relationships that can support your professional growth and career journey—and stay tuned for Part Three of the conversation. Missed Part 1? Check it out here. Moderator: @Samuel Smith - Information Governance Senior Analyst, Latham & Watkins LLP Speakers: @Lydia Flocchini - Founder & CEO, Scarab Strategies @Ann Gorr - Legal Technology Consultant & Information Governance Strategist Recorded on 09-15-2026.

    #0221: (WIS) Beyond the Firewall: Building a Human Centered Security Culture with Lesley Swann

    Lesley Swann, Human Risk Manager at Baker Donelson, joins us to explore what it really takes to change security behavior in a fourteen-hundred-person law firm. Lesley shares how she moved from IT technician to security engineer to building the firm's human risk program from scratch, and why she believes the real us-versus-them in security is the team and its employees versus the threat actors, not each other. We talk about psychological safety, generational communication, gamified training, and why empathy is a security skill.

    #0208: (WIS) From Rocks to Risk: How Curiosity Built a Security Career — Jessica Cannon on the SheSecures Podcast

    Jessica Cannon, Information Security Manager at Mintz in Boston, joined host Heather Morrow for the ILTA Women and Security Committee's She Secures podcast. Jessica's unconventional path, from geology to web development to cybersecurity, is the throughline of the conversation. She explains that her scientific instincts around pattern recognition are what ultimately drove her toward security work. In her current role at Mintz, no two days look alike: she might be collaborating with an AI innovation team in the morning and doing detection engineering by afternoon. When discussing her career milestones, Jessica highlights two pivotal moments: being tapped to lead a security team at AspenTech after years of quietly excelling at side projects, and then making the bold decision to leave a comfortable 13-year tenure to bring her skills to a new environment, the law firm world at Mintz. She speaks candidly about the challenges of communicating risk to highly intelligent non-technical professionals, and warns that AI is rapidly weaponizing vulnerabilities that organizations had long deprioritized. Her advice: get the fundamentals right first. Jessica closes with an inspiring personal anecdote, how a stinging performance review drove her to enroll in a digital forensics course out of spite, eventually leading her to nearly complete a full master's degree in cybersecurity. Her message to women looking to grow: stay curious, channel your frustration productively, and never stop stitching your experiences together.
