Though historically underrepresented in fields related to technology, science, math, and engineering, the tides are beginning to turn.
According to a poll by Cybersecurity Ventures, a global research firm focusing on cyber economies, women are predicted to occupy 30% of cybersecurity positions worldwide by 2025.
Hiring managers are increasingly recognizing the valuable skill sets that women bring to the table, including inventiveness, problem-solving abilities, and resilience. Additionally, the flexibility, compensation, and benefits that come with remote computer-based work are particularly appealing to women.
Welcome to this episode of 1Click2CyberChaos. I’m Kym Geddes, and together with Jeff Musson, we introduce you to two women who are shattering stereotypes. Sherry Allain is the founder of Codezilla: Coding and STEM programs for kids. And Elana Vasquez who is a 35-year Canadian military veteran and current student in the Coding for Veterans cybersecurity and software development program.
Join us every other week as we take you through 1Click2CyberChaos.
