 A few weeks back, our EVP and CMO Vasu Jakkal marked International Women’s Day with a post noting some of the ways FireEye has been helping to lead the way for women in cyber security. Diversity is what makes organizations truly unstoppable, and this fact serves as the driving force around FireEye Elevate. The goal of this industry initiative is to elevate women in cyber to the c-suite and boardroom by preparing them for the responsibilities and challenges being faced by today’s executives. Today we announced two new steps we’ve taken to encourage and empower women in the cyber security space: a cyber security leadership online resource page and the launch of several new training programs. The new Elevate online resource page on the FireEye website includes: This page is another important step in our efforts to mentor, grow and educate the next generation of cyber security leaders wherever they currently are on their leadership journey. Our new training programs are designed around cyber security mentorship and efforts to equip boards with the tools to gain a competitive edge. These programs include: We are fierce advocates for “elevating” cyber security expertise among women, preparing them for the roles and responsibilities of today’s c-suite and board room. Major investors are seeking to support and grow next-gen board members as organizations realize that cyber security expertise is now a need, alongside leadership diversity. These training programs support these goals and build FireEye’s position as a cyber security pioneer often called to coach at the board level and remediate the most consequential breaches. Check out our FireEye Elevate page for additional information, including more details on the above FireEye training programs.
