It started with:

  • What are the common myths about cybersecurity and cybersecurity careers and how can we dispel them?
  • How do we bolster student interest in cybersecurity and better engage those interested?
  • How do we devise communications and opportunities that span generations?

In 2020 we grew to explore:

  • Testimonials, storytelling, and narratives that connect with the public, showing the need to act from a cyber perspective on all levels, and the feasibility of how Improvements are achievable
  • Inclusive career opportunities involving a diverse range of skill sets 
  • Informing diverse groups that cybersecurity offers something for everyone,  you just need the drive and the desire
