Security is one of the hardest and most high-stakes subfield you can pursue. It's totally dominated by white and Asian men.
They had to hire somebody with a degree in music composition just to fill the spot with a female, and now the entire nation suffers for it.
Obviously, there were no other female candidates available. No other explanation for this. clearly.
Or could it be that a music major would be absurdly cheap in the C-suite, as opposed to someone qualified to run security for a multi-billion-dollar business serving as the backbone of the economy?

Good luck finding a female security expert at the level of an executive officer who is actually qualified.
Again: it's a field dominated by men for good reason. Nobody gives a shit about your feels, and the stakes of fucking up are your entire career. It's not a great place for women in general. Hence why, to fill the spot with a woman, they literally just pulled a music major's resume out of a hat.
Just imagine stripping the resume of all demographic data. Does it make sense to hire a music composition major to run computer security in something as high-stakes as a credit reporting company that maintains critical information on pretty much every last American citizen, or nah? The only reason they hired her was for diversity.

Because anyone not a white male is a diversity hire? It’s an incompetent CEO not giving a fuck about credentials when handling his money machine. Hell, she might even have been his mistress.

That is true but I feel like the person who put her there is more at fualt for this hack than her. Clearly she wasn't supposed to be there but someone hire up placed her there. Maybe she was there to just get a comfty job and that the position was supposed to be one of those "do nothing jobs because it all runs by itself" type positions. Maybe she got that position because she was related to someone important/influenatle or maybe she got the job because the person hiring just didn't give any fucks?
