THE CEFCYS IN ACTION

CEFCYS aims at animating a community of women working or aspiring to contribute to the field of Cybersecurity by:

  • Valuing and enhancing women’s professional skills through working groups, mentoring programs, publication of newsletters and reports…

  • Organizing and/or participating in events and conferences in France and abroad.

  • Raising awareness among companies, educational partners, and recruiters about the importance of gender parity and thus increasing the presence and impact of women.

  • Contributing to raising awareness about cybersecurity among the public through transparent citizen action in order to protect and educate youngsters to a safer use of digital technology.

Our latest activities…
  • Publication of the book “I don’t wear a hoodie, yet I work in cybersecurity”: an original guide for high school students, parents, educators, women wishing to develop their professional project…
  • Several video conferences organized during the Covid19 lockdown for members and the general public.
