Women in Cyber
Women are still underrepresented in the swiss cyber security workforce. What can organisations do to bridge this gap?Gender diversity is a critical element of successful cyber security
Cyber security has become one of the hottest and fastest-growing fields in technology across the globe today. Despite the continuous growth in cyber security spending and opportunities, women’s representation in the cyber workforce remains low - even more so than in IT.
At Deloitte Switzerland, we are committed to addressing the gender balance and growing skills shortage in cyber. Established in 2015, our Women in Cyber network aims towards a common vision: to promote gender diversity in the cyber security industry by inspiring others, developing our people and building a community. This vision is supported by three pillars:
Inspire
Grow
Connect
Our aim is to promote gender diversity in the cyber security industry by inspiring others, developing our people and building a community.
Insights & stories
At Deloitte Switzerland, we share a common vision with the EMEA Women in Cyber team and work hand-in-hand to promote gender parity in cyber security across all levels from analyst to Vice President. To initiate the dialogue we developed the Women in Cyber Leadership Interview Series.
We interviewed female security leaders across industries and academia to create awareness and foster a community that inspires female talent to consider a career in cyber.
They spoke with us about their journeys to cyber security, lessons learned and perspectives on their current roles. Whether it is overcoming challenges, advice on how to build a career in cyber or skills needed to succeed, these inspiring stories provide in-depth, diverse and bold insights that will help drive the dialogue in Switzerland and across regions.
