Although technology is the tool and process is the enabler, cybersecurity is ultimately all about the people. In the spirit of this year's Cybersecurity Awareness Month theme - "See Yourself in Cyber" - we will spend this month highlighting our people and showcasing their paths that led to careers in cybersecurity. Follow along on the VMware Security blog throughout the month to learn more about the career paths of VMware defenders as well as advice for anyone looking to break into the industry. As Karen Worstell, senior cybersecurity strategist at VMware, notes, "Security touches everything, and a career in the field is incredibly rewarding and impactful. What the security industry needs is people with a strong sense of service and a desire to make a difference." And there is a desperate need. The global cybersecurity workforce is facing a skills gap of 3.5 million workers and is only 25% women, according to Cybersecurity Ventures. 1 As a force for good across the technology industry, VMware is empowering the next generation of women leaders through projects such as VMinclusion Taara , VMware Achieve Scholarships , and partnerships with organizations such as I WISH . By investing in programs to expand the community of female and diverse talent in technology, VMware is committed to helping more women see themselves in cyber. People who are mavericks, those who look at things differently and have a natural curiosity to make the world a better place, make the best defenders." Karen Worstell, Senior Cybersecurity Strategist, VMware In celebration of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, tune into Ask the Howlers on October 20 where host Karen Worstell will be joined live by Lynn Dohm, Executive Director at Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS), to discuss how we can grow and diversify the cybersecurity workforce.
