We are a community to identify with, to orientate, train as well as engage youths in the area of information and cybersecurity, empowering young minds, male and female.
Support Young Tech Savy Minds.
The global cyber security market is projected to grow from USD 155.83 billion in 2022 to USD 376.32 billion by 2029.
Employment of information security analysts will grow by 33% in the next 10 years – much faster than the average for all occupations.
Cybercrime Magazine concludes that women now make up approximately 20% of the global infosec payrolls. Which is, an encouraging improvement from six years ago, but still woefully shy of the 50 percent range that would represent parity.
Help Support Young Minds Especially Women To Take Advantage Of These Opportunities.
