Jinan leads Forrester’s security and risk research in Asia Pacific. Jinan’s research focuses on enabling the success of the chief information security officer (CISO) role; creating transformational cybersecurity strategies; and building security awareness, behaviour, and culture programs at the heart of a security strategy.
Jinan is a champion for diversity and inclusion in security and brings a local and global perspective and cultural lens to her research and practice. Jinan’s research remains pragmatic, as she recently returned to Forrester after several years as director of cyber strategy at Transport for NSW and a similar role with Qantas Airlines.
Jinan has built, stood up, and delivered significant cybertransformation strategies across the public and private sectors. She is an experienced people leader and international keynote speaker, and she's passionate around her purpose in the security field. Jinan holds two bachelor’s degrees in science and commerce from the Australian National University.
When Jinan posted a simple question on social media about her research into the toxicity in cybersecurity teams, it exploded! 'We have all experienced toxicity, whether we've been leaders or we've been led'. In this episode Jinan shares how it enabled people to share their experiences, what she learnt and how she hopes to drive positive change in cybersecurity culture.
