Cybersecurity Tech Accord celebrates International Women’s Day 2024 with a Webinar in partnership with Women4Cyber on Bridging the Cybersecurity Gender Gap

As part of our International Women’s Day 2024 campaign, the Cybersecurity Tech Accord and Women4Cyber co-hosted on 27 March an interactive career webinar titled Cybersecurity Tech Accord X Women4Cyber Mentorship Programme: Bridging the Cybersecurity Gender Gap, where women leaders from our community of signatories shared their experience on finding their way in the cybersecurity workforce and the skills needed to succeed in a cybersecurity career. Participants had the chance to learn more about the Women4Cyber Mentorship Programme and how to get involved as a mentee directly from women mentors and received tips on choosing the right career path for themselves.

Our webinar, moderated by Ilinca Bogaciov from the Cybersecurity Tech Accord Secretariat, featured the following speakers from our signatory community:

Charlotte Eynon – Cybersecurity Consultant at Infosys Consulting

Dana Simberkoff  – Chief Risk, Privacy and Information Security Officer at AvePoint
