Why this trophy?
The original mission of CEFCYS is to promote women in the cybersecurity sector. In 2020, we organized the first trophy for women in cyber in France, the #CYBERWOMANDAY, which was highly successful with more than 300 applications.
CEFCYS takes another step forward by opening the trophy to the rest of Europe and then to the whole world.
This Trophy will celebrate women with remarkable career paths and achievements.
This is the vocation of CEFCYS: to arouse & support, thanks to the promotion of these “role models”, new vocations for this dynamic sector with high potential, which is at the same time strategic for a nation, a public and private organization.
