For those who want to enter the cybersecurity field, especially if they come from a non-technical background, there is no shortage of opportunities. Just ask Kristin Kelly, our Growth Marketing Programs Specialist, who was recently recognized as a Young Professional to Watch by the International Legal Technology Association (ILTA).

  • How Kristin has worked to overcome imposter syndrome and become more proactive to share ideas and build networks at work
  • The importance of self-education and networking to grow in the cybersecurity industry
