Could the Meta platforms outage be a harbinger of digital vulnerability we've ignored for too long? Join Destiny and I as we unpack the complexities of cybersecurity, not to paint a daunting picture, but to reveal its multifaceted nature, brimming with challenges and thrills.

We're here to give it to you straight, with anecdotes that question the authenticity of 'day in the life' videos and an honest look at what working in tech really entails. Our discussion spans the pace of work, the concrete benefits of networking, and the balance of job security against equity when the corporate maze throws a curveball. Whether you're weathering the storm of a performance improvement plan or navigating layoffs, this episode serves up a blend of career advice and firsthand experiences that resonate deeply within the tech community.
As we wrap up our journey through the digital and personal landscapes of the tech industry, we confront the cold reality of layoffs, dissect the emotional toll of job transitions, and weigh in on the wide-reaching impact these corporate decisions have. From cybersecurity to cloud computing, we explore how these fields contrast in satisfaction and career paths. While airing workplace grievances on social media might provide fleeting comfort, we discuss the importance of discretion and strategic thinking. And through it all, we maintain that cybersecurity is far from boring—it's a field charged with real-world implications, where every day presents a new puzzle to solve. So tune in, as we offer a narrative that's as dynamic and diverse as the tech world itself.Support the Show.

Start your GRC Career with TechPreneurs Club
Hey there, tech enthusiasts! Welcome back to The TechTual Talk. This is episode 115, and today, it's all about "Get In GRc." I'm Henri, your guide through the tech jungle, and boy, do we have a treat for you!Joining us is the super savvy Jordanne, who's mastered the game of GRC, and she's here to spill all the tea. From her accidental dive into the world of PCI compliance right out of college, we're going deep into how our past gigs and college majors turned out to be the GPS for our careers.
We'll be chatting about those lightbulb moments that made us think differently about making bank, and how we went from fresh-faced college kids to big kids playing in the tech sandbox.
Jordanne's going to drop some truth bombs about a job interview that was more like a bad quiz show and how certs alone aren't the golden ticket in our world. And get this—we'll talk about using the good ol' boob tube to make cyber stuff stick in people's brains easier.
We're not just going to hang out on the surface; we're going to go deep into the serious biz, like the importance of stepping up for yourself, never hitting pause on learning, and why you've got to work those soft skills like a boss.
Plus, we've got the scoop on what's scary in data privacy, the rise of deep fakes, and how to armor up against the cyber baddies that keep changing their stripes. If you're curious about PCI compliance or climbing the GRC ladder, Jordanne's lived to tell the tale.
We're all about sharing that good karma, so we've got a code for a free 14-day trial with Aura to keep your data on lockdown. And yeah, we'll remind you: Don't go wild with that tax return—invest in your tech future instead!
So, come hang with us. It's going to be a laid-back chat with solid gold info, whether you're just breaking into tech or you're a walking IT encyclopedia. Time to Get In GRc with The TechTual Talk. And remember, we're all about keeping it real. Catch you in a sec!
