Deidre is the Founder and CEO of the national cybersecurity staffing company Cyber Security Network (CyberSN) and the Founder of not-for-profit thought leadership platform #brainbabe (brainbabe.org.) Prior to founding CyberSN and #brainbabe, Diamond was the VP of Sales for the national technical staffing company Motion Recruitment, the first VP of Sales at Rapid7 and the CEO of Percussion Software. Because Diamond herself was hired as an entry-level employee and trained to lead technology service organizations and cybersecurity software organizations, she believes the tech community needs to expand its awareness of what it means “to be in tech” and what it means “to be in cyber.” Diamond desires to achieve a new way of hiring and retaining women in cybersecurity.
