Parisa Tabriz is Google’s Security Princess. Yes, that’s her actual title - she likes it better than “Information Security Engineer.” Her job is to hack Google Chrome, and she heads a team of over 30 hackers in the US and Europe handling security threats to Chrome and other parts of Google. As Elle Magazine put it, “she gets paid to think like a criminal, to suss out weaknesses in Google Chrome - the world’s most-used internet browser - that could be exploited - then ensure that they’re fixed before that can happen.” Her work protects millions of people around the world from identity theft. She’s been featured in WIRED magazine, Forbes, and has helped enhance network and software security at the White House.
