With March being Women’s History Month, and March 8th the observance of International Women’s Day, we assembled some thoughts and quotes with these themes in mind from women in our industry to share. Women make up about 25-26% of the cybersecurity workforce. You can read more about that in ISC2’s Cyber Workforce Study 2023 here. In addition, women only make up 34% of the workforce in STEM, and men still outnumber women majoring in most STEM fields in college. Based on a recent survey here at N2K CyberWire, nearly a third of our responding audience is female which is up significantly from just a few years ago. We are very proud of the work we do at N2K Networks to support women in STEM. We recently published an encore of our Breaking Through: Securing the advancement of women in cybersecurity panel in honor of International Women’s Day. In addition, we are highlighting the work of women in the industry throughout the month of March. We hope you enjoy this bonus content.
