[???????? ?????????????????? - ?????????????????????????? ?????????????????????? - ??????????????] ?? Finding a #community in Cybersecurity is essential for various reasons. ?? Firstly, it provides a network of professionals who can help you advance in your career. You can connect with people who have similar interests, goals, and experiences, which can lead to valuable opportunities, such as job offers or partnerships. ???Secondly, being part of a cybersecurity community allows you to find a mentor who can guide you and provide you with insights and knowledge you wouldn't have otherwise. ?? Moreover, volunteering in the community can provide you with the opportunity to give back and help others while also gaining valuable experience. Talking and collaborating with others in the community can help you learn new things and get help when you need it. ?? Additionally, studying together with like-minded individuals can be more efficient and effective, as you can learn from each other and share resources. ?? Lastly, being part of a cybersecurity community can help you give back to the community by sharing your knowledge and experience with others. ?? ???????? ???????? ?????????????? ???? ?????? ???? ???????? ?? ??????????????????? ??

The Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) mentor/mentee program was built in 2020 out of a labor of love from Archana Ramamoorthy and WiCyS staff ?? Since my first cohort in 2020, I've adored being a part of this thriving professional development opportunity of stepping into the space of mentorship. Mentorship is a leadership skill that needs to be exercised and challenged to help yourself and others navigate crucial conversations and challenging scenarios... and to grow professionally (and personally). It's also a place to have a unique network of championing and celebrating one another. No two cohorts I've had in the past three years have been alike. What's interesting is that we know those who have a mentor are FIVE times more likely to get promoted... but DID YOU KNOW that being a mentor makes you SIX times more likely to be promoted? And what's great is that the WiCyS program helps get you there. The curriculum is designed to help "mentor the mentor" ~ we provide mentoring resources, webinars and support throughout the nine-month program. Thanks to the commitment and hard work of dear?Karen N.?and?Deborah Kariuki, we continue to enhance this program?each year! Being devoted to mentoring others helps develop a better version of you. Would love for you to join me as a mentor in this '24-'25 cohort ?? Enrollment only opens up one time a year: https://lnkd.in/gyfnt8Qe #womenincybersecurity #womeincyber #womenintechnology #womenintech #cyberjobs #mentoring #mentee #inclusionandbelonging #SeeHerAsEqual
