Priyanka Ahnberg
Security Engineer – TechWhat led you to choose the path of Security Engineering?
I became a Security Engineer because I believe in the importance of protecting people, businesses, and data. In today's digital world, cybersecurity isn't just about technology - it’s about trust. I want to help organizations build secure environments where employees and customers can feel safe. Being a Security Engineer gives me the opportunity to use my technical skills to make a real impact and contribute to a safer digital world.
How did that journey lead you to Kivra?
Kivra is a well-known brand in Sweden with a significant impact on a large portion of the Swedish population, so I felt it was a perfect fit for my passions and interests, offering an opportunity to contribute to building a secure digital future for millions.
What do you think can be done to encourage more women to pursue a career in tech? What has your experience been in this area?
I believe early exposure and education is needed. Introduce coding programs in schools targeted at young girls (kids in general). Mentorship & Networking - a support system is needed. Last but not the least; Inclusive hiring & workplace culture is important.
Tell me briefly about your journey at Kivra so far.
I’ve had the opportunity to work on improving the company’s security posture through a mix of proactive threat hunting, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams, and embedding security principles into the development process.

About Kivra AB
Kivra is a better place for viktigheter. It was 2011, and things were as they’ve always been. Trees became pulp that became bills and flyers. The mail was picked up in small cars and then driven out to small post boxes – just as they always were. But wait a second. Was there really no better way, a bunch of digital innovators asked themselves. There was. They founded Kivra, which soon became something much bigger. We’ve evolved from a digital mailbox to a one stop shop for your important stuff. But it doesn’t end there. Along with our main owners 41 Invest and FAM, we’re constantly finding new smart ways to improve life – for you, society and nature.
