This prestigious event is a testament to our commitment to celebrating the remarkable achievements of women in InfoSec and fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all.
Prepare for an evening of elegance and sophistication, as the Gala will be a formal black-tie affair.
At the Gala, guests will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by participating in a silent auction. All proceeds from the auction will go directly to our scholarship fund, enabling us to further support women in their educational and professional pursuits.
Our community was founded with the purpose of empowering women in the InfoSec industry and providing them with the support they need to thrive. As part of this mission, we launched our scholarship fund in January 2021. This fund is dedicated to empowering women in InfoSec through continuous learning opportunities, including college education, technical certifications, and leadership training.
