7MS #458: Interview with Tanya Janca

Today we're super excited to share a featured interview with Tanya Janca of WeHackPurple!

Tanya has been in software development from the moment she was of legal age to work in Canada - beginning by working with some huge companies (Nokia/Adobe) before falling in love with application security and eventually starting a company of her own. Gh0sthax and I sat down with Tanya over Zoom to discuss:

How to overcome your fears and present at conferences, write blog posts and even start your own company!
How to deal with online jackwagons who troll you online at conferences
The importance of finding a mentor and mentoring others

Also, here are a bunch of handy links and hashtags Tanya shares throughout the interview:

Bob and Alice Learn Application Security - Tanya's book, available on Amazon
Women of Security (WoSEC)
We Hack Purple Podcast - weekly podcast with a diverse range of guests from all walks of infosec life
We Hack Purple Community - "a Canadian company dedicated to helping anyone and everyone create secure software."
Tanya's music on Spotify
#CyberMentoringMonday - a hashtag that Tanya and other security professionals monitor to help people connect with cyber mentors
InsiderPHd - has a safe space for bug bounty hunters to learn and collaborate
WeAreHackerz - "You are welcome to join WeAreHackerz if you identify as a person of a marginalized gender, including but not limited to non-binary individuals, women (trans and cis), trans men, genderqueer, etc. We welcome members across all nationalities, races, religions, ages, or other characteristics that make each of us unique."
