The Annual Women in Cybersecurity Reception is an exclusive event hosted by the CyberWire since 2016. The goal of this event is to inspire women to continue to overcome the challenges of cybersecurity and create the momentum necessary to bring more women into the field. While women have contributed to pioneering work in cybersecurity, many have gone without recognition for far too long, highlighting the need for diversity and inclusion in an increasingly complex, interconnected, and technology-dependent world.
