When I think about how cybersecurity is portrayed in popular entertainment, my immediate thought is towards the depiction of hackers. Specifically, that hacking is typically shown to be an innate talent. Rarely, if ever, is the process of learning to hack depicted. I suppose this must be the case as hacking is nearly always a means to an end within fiction, and not as a central pillar of the story. Rarely is hacking part of the central, emotional core of a story. I wonder if this mythologizing of hacking contributes to making cybersecurity as a field seem less approachable to marginalized groups.
