there would not have been a cyber security degree available in the 1960s/70s when she gained her music degree.

If she wanted to be in charge of security at an important organisation thens he should have done one in her spare time at the point they became available. Or completed sufficient professional training in regards to security rather than restringing guitars.

Male CISOs at breached organisations aren't subject to the same criticism based on their early education choices.

Utter rot. I don't care about the divserity boxes the top snout ticks or not, I care that they have the professional competence to keep my data secure - especially where I have no choice but to provide it to them.

There's simply no excuse for not having an related technical degree in a field for which you hold a senior technical position. No excuse at all.
