On Thursday, December 12th, InfraGardNCR’s IT sector chiefs will host the next session in its “Cyber Series” webinars – “The Changing Role of the CISO”

The expanding cybersecurity threat landscape has dramatically changed the role and impact of the CISO. This role was traditionally seen as a security enforcer; today they need to be engaged with all C-Level and the Board. Historically this role was viewed as a tech solution leader and today they need to be seen as part of the business leadership team helping to drive business outcomes, not block them.

Join our webinar and hear from your industry colleagues George Estrada, CTO, CWPS; Steve Hutchens, CISO, Apple Federal Credit Union; and Talha Tariq, CSO, HashiCorp.

This webinar is open to both InfraGard members and non-members, so please share with those who may benefit from this content.

SANS – It is no secret that there is a significant dearth of technical cybersecurity professionals. To effectively close this growing skills gap, we must radically enhance the talent pipeline by identifying and reskilling individuals with high aptitude and passion. While traditional academic routes often fail to attract under-represented populations into cybersecurity, recruitment efforts have proven effective by engaging these groups at the career transition stage. We will highlight successful programs that have reskilled hundreds of individuals through training and certification and into cyber jobs over the past four years as well as innovative employer approaches to talent development.

Today, women are entering and rising through the ranks of cybersecurity experts, with more expected to join these ranks in coming years. By the end of 2019, women are expected to represent 20% of the global cybersecurity workforce, up dramatically from 2013, when only 11% of the workforce was female.

At this webcast, survey author, forensic examiner and SANS instructor Heather Mahalik discusses key results of the survey of successful women in varied roles within the cybersecurity community and draws on experiences of such women to provide practical advice to women all along their career life cycle. Attendees will learn about:

Directing your career path
Growing as a manager/leader
Interacting with others
As an added bonus, Heather will share the advice successful women have provided to those entering the cybersecurity field today.
