WIT.Connect - Women in Defense & Cybersecurity
Protecting sensitive data is critical for mission success, both on and off the battlefield. The Pentagon has been tackling this through cybersecurity approaches like Zero Trust architecture, as well as embracing emerging technologies like 5G and AI. But even with all that work there is a long road ahead as the threat landscape evolves.
This panel brings together accomplished women in defense and cybersecurity to discuss tackling complex cyber threats, bolstering resilience and shaping strategic policies. Our esteemed panelists will also shed light their experience as women in cybersecurity and enhancing recruitment, mentorship and career progression of women within the cybersecurity domain.
