Project Cyber is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization focused on closing the gender gap in the field of cybersecurity by inspiring and cultivating the next generation of women cybersecurity leaders.
Cyber criminals do not all look and think alike. Organizations need diversity of thought to properly protect and defend. With cyber threats becoming more complex and ubiquitous, coupled with the shortfall of 3.5 million cybersecurity jobs, we have a critical need to take action to close the gender gap.
We are a non-profit organization focused on inspiring and empowering girls of all ages to succeed in the field of cybersecurity.
A safer digital world enabled by a gender-balanced cybersecurity workforce.
Project Cyber collaborates with educators, community partners, and volunteers to inspire the next generation of women cybersecurity leaders through fun, engaging, and interactive programs for girls in elementary school through college. We are also working on providing access to relevant cybersecurity resources such as mentorships and internships to support girls throughout their educational and early career journeys.
Women represent the largest single economic force in the world and are leading adopters of technology. Yet, women make up just 24% of the world’s cybersecurity workforce, roughly 10% more than it was a decade ago. Studies have shown that women contribute a unique perspective to problem solving that is good for security and good for business.
