Do we really want to sell cybersecurity with pink skirts? 🤦🏻♀️ It’s 2024. We work hard every day to make women visible in cyber and attract those hesitant to join. Women4Cyber Belgium is doing an incredible job. Yet, according to the ISC2 survey, women still only make up 25% of the cyber workforce — a mere 1% increase from 2023. The journey is still challenging, and we need more support to bring women into cyber. Using #stereotypical marketing strategies might be a commercial tactic, but is it responsible?
