?? Overconfidence in cybersecurity can be more dangerous than ignorance! ?? A staggering 83% of people believe they can identify security threats— yet 53% don’t even know what ransomware is! ?? ?? Anna Collard ??'s research on Africa’s digital security landscape reveals a critical lesson: Fear won’t protect us—digital literacy will. ?? How Cybercriminals Target Us: ?? Financial scams – As mobile banking grows, so do fraud risks. ?? Social engineering – Women are disproportionately targeted for identity theft & cyber extortion. ?? Digital safety gaps – Mixing personal & work devices exposes us to threats. ?? The Best Approach? Practical, Solution-Focused Learning: ? Think before you click – Question every unexpected link or message. ? Enable multi-factor authentication – Secure your accounts beyond just passwords. ? Stay ahead of AI-driven scams & deepfakes – Awareness is key, but action is critical. Cybercriminals don’t just hack systems—they hack trust. At Taara Quest, we believe in moving beyond fear to building real digital resilience. ?? What’s your #1 cybersecurity tip? Drop it in the comments! ?? ??

?? What a Transformative Year for Taara Quest! This year, we’ve made bold strides in advocating for women and reimagining the future of AI-driven empowerment. Here’s a glimpse into our journey: ??♀? Introducing Taara, our AI Big Sister. We launched Taara, a first-of-its-kind AI influencer, designed to reflect women’s real experiences and support their growth. Through thought-provoking conversations and by highlighting outstanding women's experiences, we aimed to make Taara's Instagram page a beacon of relatable, empowering content. ?? 400+ women from 40 countries participated in our groundbreaking research on AI and Women’s Trust. We explored how women perceive AI influencers, revealing the need for relatable, diverse, and human-centered content. A huge thank you to every woman who participated in this project! Your insights are shaping Taara’s evolution, ensuring she champions real stories and real struggles. ?? Connecting at events We're grateful to She Loves Tech Summit for the opportunity to join powerful voices advocating for change and innovation. A huge thank you to Impact Hub Leipzig, who hosted the Born Global Meetup, an evening filled with meaningful conversations and inspiring stories from nearly 40 international participants. We’re deeply grateful to our collaborators at Tech Creed for the insightful Starting Stronger event. Every interaction reaffirmed our mission: creating an inclusive future where women thrive in leadership and beyond.? ?? The Taara SkillQuest Platform is Almost Here! We’re in the final stages of development, preparing to beta-test our AI-powered roleplay platform.

Key Takeaways from the "Starting Stronger" Event ?? We’re deeply grateful to our collaborators at Tech Creed, and our inspiring speakers — Anis? Abazi (Kodhelaj), Alexandria S., and Dr. Luise Frohberg — for their powerful stories and guidance, and for every attendee who dedicated their time to us. And, of course, a huge THANK YOU, Rexhina Hoxha, for leading the event. Together, we addressed some of the toughest challenges in the job search. Here’s what we learned to help you start stronger! 1?? Embrace Your Transferable Skills As Anis? highlighted, people skills, creativity, and problem-solving are invaluable in today’s job market. Technologies will evolve, but these skills will continue to set you apart. 2?? Confidence Through Action Alexandra reminded us that rejection is part of the process, not a reflection of your worth. Confidence grows when you take action, even in small ways. Create a "confidence folder" of accomplishments to revisit when self-doubt creeps in. 3?? Authenticity Wins Avoid the temptation to copy-paste AI-generated answers into applications. Craft your CV and LinkedIn profile to reflect you. Use creative formats or personal anecdotes to stand out. Authenticity attracts opportunities. 4?? Leverage Emotional Intelligence Emotional intelligence is a superpower in today’s job market. Practice self-awareness by identifying your triggers, strengths, and values — these insights will help you answer the interview questions. 5?? Expand Your Network Tap into platforms like LinkedIn to connect with peers and potential mentors. Networking isn’t just a strategy — it’s an ongoing investment in yourself. Once again, a huge thank you to all our speakers and Tech Creed for making this event possible! This is how we grow — by supporting and learning from one another. ?? Which of these tips resonates most with you? Have your insights to share? Let us know in the comments! Together, we’re building a stronger, more inclusive tech community. #WomenInTech #TechCareers #ProfessionalDevelopment #CareerWorkshop #JobSearchSupport #StartingStronger #CareerEmpowerment #WomenEmpowerment
