We’re Sponsoring the NYU-Poly Women’s Cybersecurity Symposium

Summary: Trail of Bits is sponsoring the NYU-Poly Career Discovery in Cyber Security symposium, an annual two-day event on October 17-18 in Brooklyn, New York, aimed at guiding women into cybersecurity careers. The event includes keynote talks, interactive learning sessions, technical workshops, a mentoring roundtable, a female executive panel Q&A, and networking, and Trail of Bits provides named scholarships for attendees and takes part in the post-event mentoring program.
Why it matters: The source states plainly that women are severely underrepresented in cybersecurity, and the pipeline effort here runs through named scholarships and a post-event mentoring program rather than a single conference appearance.
