I was surprised to receive this in the mail! A token of celebration for my nearly year-long journey to becoming an iPEC Coaching Certified Professional Coach. Thank you 🏳️‍🌈 Maril Vernon, CEH, MSCSIA for the thoughtful gift 💜 If you’re a woman in cybersecurity interested in experiencing the power of quality coaching, join me inside the Hacker in Heels community. Group coaching is included in the monthly membership. 1:1 coaching is available at an additional cost only to Hacker in Heels Insiders—and you have to apply. Why? Because I strongly believe we have plenty of resources as part of Insiders that can help women in cybersecurity with many of the common challenges they seek career coaching for. To send people straight towards my highest-ticket offer when I know they can benefit from what I’ve already created at a lower price-point would be out of integrity for me. Trust me, I’d love to sign some 1:1 coaching clients and get quickly on my way to earning back my investment. But I will not prioritize my wallet when I know you don’t need or aren’t ready for 1:1 coaching. So come dip your toes in Insiders! I’d love to help you with your big, bold cybersecurity career goals. #womenincybersecurity #cybersecurity #careercoaching

The role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has evolved significantly in a relatively short period, yet there is still much progress to be made. Conversations like this one are essential for advancing the role. Thank you, 360 Advanced for providing a platform to share our experiences and lessons learned on our journeys to becoming a CISO. #ciso #cisoapproved #leadership #growth

This October marks the 20th anniversary of Cybersecurity Awareness Month! 📲🔐 In 2004, The Department of Homeland Department of Homeland Security and the National Cybersecurity Alliance recognized the lurking digital risks in an age of constant connectivity. As a result, they launched Cybersecurity Awareness Month, an initiative endorsed by President GW Bush. This program was designed to educate the nation about both the risks AND the necessary prevention measures for safely navigating the digital world.🌐 Cybersecurity Awareness Month has evolved into a collaborative effort between government and industry that not only increases public understanding but also inspires action, fosters ongoing discussions, and emphasizes the importance of digital safety.🛡️ #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #StaySafeOnline #DigitalSafety

Participating in events like this is one of the ways those of us with technical practitioner background can help share our experience with others and shape the future of cyber protection. Manufacturing automation is critical infrastructure for the companies that own those plants and the people who work there. They require the same cyber protections being utilized to protect the power, water, and pipeline sectors. #otcybersecurity #scadacybersecurity #OTMSSP

To effectively handle cyber incidents across critical infrastructure, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) just launched a new Cyber Incident Reporting Portal. This portal enables real-time reporting, offering organizations a secure and efficient way to comply with federal cyber incident reporting regulations. More importantly, it fosters collaboration between the private sector and government agencies to stay ahead of malicious actors. As cyber threats increase in both frequency and sophistication, businesses must be more proactive than ever in reporting and responding to breaches. Let's embrace this opportunity to enhance our incident response strategies and work together to protect our critical infrastructure. 💡🔐 Source: Cybersecurity Dive #Cybersecurity #CISA #IncidentResponse #CriticalInfrastructure #CyberResilience #Collaboration

A quick schedule update! I had to push everything a week back, so that does give you a little more time to sign up if you are interested in getting certified and learning more how to perform assessments and self-assessments for the Certified Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program. My next Certified CMMC Professional course is starting soon on June 17th and runs through July 22nd! This course is perfect for anyone involved with NIST SP 800-171 compliance and has a need to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). As a practitioner first, I bring real-world experience and tackle the content from the perspective of both an assessor and an implementer. This training is beneficial for those interested in becoming CMMC assessors and those who want more information on how to perform self-assessments for their organizations. The higher fidelity of your self-assessments and your evidence gathering procedures, the smoother your formal assessment will be later on. The course is an evening course that runs for 6 weeks, and meets two nights a week for 90-minute sessions, so there is no information overload. All sessions are recorded so you can watch again after the live sessions. If you have any questions about the course, please don't hesitate to reach out. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and knowledge! I only offer training a few times a year. The schedule for the rest of the year is also posted on the site. CCP June/July. CCA Aug/Sept. CCP again Oct/Nov. Registration link in comments! #cmmc #dib #dod #cybersecurity #nist800171
