Dylan is a cybersecurity engineer with six-plus years across healthcare, financial services, lottery, and logistics — everywhere the stakes are high and the regulations are higher still. She specializes in
LLM-powered cyber deception operations and
behavior-science-driven security awareness, and has built and led security programs as both an individual contributor and a manager.The through-line of her work is simple: security succeeds when people are empowered, not threatened. She designs programs, research, and talks around that premise, and translates complex adversary behavior into actionable strategy for both technical teams and executives.She lives in Des Moines, Iowa. She serves on the board of the
Des Moines Queer Youth Resource Center, and always loves to hear from other security practitioners.
