In our ever connected society, security has become an essential component for all facets of life. Businesses, government, academics, and individually, all facets have a need to protect and secure technology. Over the past 5-10 years, the demand for cyber security professionals has significantly increased. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment for Cyber Security Specialists is expected to increase much faster than the average career over the course of the next 10 years. Despite the growing demand, women represent an alarmingly low percentage. This can be demonstrated in nearly any university�s technology courses. Cyber security especially is highly male-dominated. Research shows that having a balance of male and female perspectives facilitates diverse and creative innovation and problem solving, within the ever changing realm of cyber security. The NSF SFS funded Broadening Participation of Women in Cybersecurity Project, which aims to build a movement towards diversifying Cyber Security. The program put on the Women in Cyber Security Conference (WiCyS), in Nashville, TN, April 11-12. I will discuss my experience at this conference. I will also discuss takeaways from this conference, and important information for anyone interested in pursuing a career in this ever evolving and highly demanded field.
