Episode 14 - Leading Security as a Business Enabler with Bruna Stradiotto

In this episode of the Women in Cybersecurity Podcast, we sit down with Bruna Stradiotto, Associate Director of Information Security & IT Risk at Canary Wharf Group in London. Bruna shares her remarkable journey across Brazil, Italy, and the UK, and how a career that began in business intelligence, commercial leadership, and operations evolved into executive-level cybersecurity leadership. With more than two decades of experience, Bruna brings a unique perspective on bridging the gap between the boardroom and technical teams—positioning cybersecurity not as a blocker, but as a true business enabler. We explore how she drives enterprise security strategy, manages IT and data protection risks for one of the UK’s most iconic business districts, and why diverse career paths can be a powerful advantage in cybersecurity. This conversation is an inspiring example of how women can shape the future of cybersecurity through resilience, adaptability, and a deep understanding of both business and risk. A must-listen for anyone navigating career transitions, leading security programs, or aspiring to influence at the executive level.
