Dug Song, Cisco Vice President And General Manager & Duo Security Co-Founder
Trey Boynton has brought diversity of thought to the table to help prevent the adversary from taking advantage of monolithic ways of thinking. She has served as Duo Security's diversity and inclusion manager since August 2017.
Song said Boynton excels at learning to integrate and innovate around diverse viewpoints and skills and building products where accessibility presents opportunity. Individuals who are legally blind can log into Duo, Song said, while Cisco makes a sign language interpreter available at some of its events.
Boynton has connected diversity and inclusion to security in ways that are really relevant, Song said, with a focus on being thoughtful and empathetic as well as protecting others from harm. She encourages employees to put themselves in the shoes of the people they serve, Song said, as well as think about what it takes to use, manage, sell, deploy and support the product.
