I first thought you're right and the joke is not ok - but it's not a joke: https://archive.ph/Afnyl

How is it sexism if it's true? Or should people not bring this up because she's a woman?

I think the problem is Equifax's record of handling (non-consenting) user's data, and that causes resentment - not that the CISO was a woman.

>How is it sexism if it's true? Or should people not bring this up because she's a woman?

Nobody would ever bring this up about a man, most CISOs have similar degrees. You haven't even been able to get a formal education on this topic for very long.

False. Go read the reams of comments about Boeing's (male) leadership during the 787-MAX disaster.

I'm sick of MBAs with no domain expertise or formal training ruining lives. Making that about gender is insane.

They certainly would if a company led by this man lost the records of 150M people that did not consent to their data being collected.

She was incompetent and should be in jail.

I haven't heard anyone saying that about Metas CISO, or Twitters CISO, or Ubers CISO.

For example, the data leaked from Uber in the recent breach is way more impactful than anything which ever leaked from Equifax.

But hey, maybe that's just because nobody noticed that Latha Maripuri is also a woman.

>She was incompetent and should be in jail.

How would you know it wasn't her superiors constantly blocking her from doing her job properly?

What could be more impactful than the social security numbers, personal information, and financial records of every adult in the US?

>But hey, maybe that's just because nobody noticed that Latha Maripuri is also a woman.

Yes, that should tell you that gender has nothing to do with it which you are vehemently trying to make this about.

>How would you know it wasn't her superiors constantly blocking her from doing her job properly?

I don't know that, that's why the company should have been liquidated as compensation, or at the very least it should have been taken to court where she can testify to what she tried to do and what she was blocked from doing. Otherwise, the responsibility lies with her -- that is literally her job description.

>What could be more impactful than the social security numbers, personal information, and financial records of every adult in the US?

You could already buy just about any adults SSN for a dollar from various breach aggregators well before the equifax leak, so literally nothing changed in that regard.

Personal information? What? Names, addresses, dates of birth? The above still applies.

Uber holds very detailed location data, travel histories. Far more revealing than what might have come

>Yes, that should tell you that gender has nothing to do with it which you are vehemently trying to make this about.

I'm not sure you can seriously read anything into that, it's essentially random whether or not these things get picked up.

Or why do you think that Susan Mauldin is widely ridiculed but Latha Maripuri is not? Both have very similar resumes, no formal qualifications and presided over massive breaches.

>I don't know that, that's why the company should have been liquidated as compensation, or at the very least it should have been taken to court where she can testify to what she tried to do and what she was blocked from doing.

This doesn't make any sense. You don't know and the possible actual culprits did not tell you otherwise, so the responsibility lies with her?

Not only is this entirely speculative and needs a citation, just because others have experienced breaches doesn't mean you get to publicize private information, that once again, people did not consent to because they're not users or customers of Equifax.

>You don't know and the possible actual culprits did not tell you otherwise, so the responsibility lies with her?

Yes, that is the role of a Chief Information Security Officer. Here is a brief description for your reference:

>The CISO (chief information security officer) is a senior-level executive responsible for developing and implementing an information security program, which includes procedures and policies designed to protect enterprise communications, systems and assets from both internal and external threats.

Unless other information comes out to suggest otherwise, yes, it is very fair to assume the responsibility lies with her.
