Ms. Weintraub has a passion for empowering women, especially the next generation of female cybersecurity leaders, and for tackling the cybersecurity workforce shortage. To help address these important issues, she serves on the Board for the Executive Women’s Forum (EWF) and the ISACA One in Tech Foundation, which is focused on building a digital world that is safe, secure and accessible for all. Most recently, she also joined the FS-ISAC Board of Directors on which she is furthering her other passion for maximizing the value of threat intelligence sharing across the financial services sector.
