WiCyS is Committed to Support the National Cyber Workforce and Education Strategy!

We are excited to announce that Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS) is fully committed to supporting the Office of the National Cyber Director as it releases its National Cyber Workforce and Education Strategy (NCWES).

This strategy aims to strengthen the cybersecurity workforce and educational opportunities across the nation, and WiCyS is proud to be a part of this critical initiative.

As part of our commitment to this strategy moving forward, our future plans will continue to make strides in supporting the advancement of the field of cybersecurity:?

  • WiCyS recognizes the need to bridge the gender gap in cybersecurity and plans to focus on states such as Alabama, Texas, and Arizona, where we will work to raise awareness about the potential and growth in this industry.
  • We are thrilled to announce the launch of our 4th annual WiCyS Security Training Scholarship Program. This program will provide deserving candidates with access to top-notch cybersecurity training, equipping them with the necessary skills to excel in their careers. By investing in education, we can cultivate a robust and diverse cyber workforce.
  • WiCyS recognizes the importance of fostering cybersecurity communities in all parts of the nation. We plan to push additional efforts in the Southwest and Southeast regions providing increased opportunities at conferences, events and hosted engagements.?
  • WiCyS is committed to continuing our efforts in building the cybersecurity ecosystem by establishing and growing strategic partnerships. By working together with organizations that share our passion for empowering underrepresented groups in cybersecurity, we can create a more inclusive and robust industry.

We firmly believe that diversity and inclusion are the driving forces behind success and progress in cybersecurity. Through this new strategy from the ONCD, WiCyS aims to empower and inspire a new generation of cybersecurity professionals from all backgrounds. Together, we can create a stronger and more secure cyber landscape for our nation.

Join us in this exciting journey as we support the National Cyber Workforce and Education Strategy. Together, we can make a difference!
