🎓Cyber exercises are a great tool for cybersecurity education! 🇨🇿🇵🇹In June, our Women4Cyber Czechia Youth Ambassador Kateřina Henclová participated in the Bootcamp for Girls in Aveiro, Portugal.

☀️🌴Krásnou neděli! Připomínáme náš dotazník, který nám pomůže lépe zacílit naše budoucí aktivity tak, aby Vás bavily a měly přidanou hodnotu. Těšíme se na Vaše odpovědi! 👉https://lnkd.in/gFvNSh5Z

#WeekendCyberReading ❓🔍 Curious why a non-technical background does not prevent you from succeeding in cyber threat intelligence? Read the article by Ondra Rojčík, Principal Threat Intelligence Analyst at Red Hat & one of the mentors from the Czech Republic sharing his experience and supporting new talents within the Women4Cyber Foundation Mentorship Program. 📚👇In his article, Ondra underlines the importance of diversity and encourages you to 'Bring in your non-technical expertise to CTI! International security context, research methodologies, and intelligence analysis were my things. Maybe yours are behavioural economics, communication theory, social engineering indicators, area studies, or risk assessment methodologies. CTI is still an evolving field — not as much is codified as we would like. This provides vital opportunities to enrich and cross-pollinate it with new perspectives that you could be bringing. Review your university textbooks; you might find plenty of concepts, frameworks, and methodologies waiting to be adopted in CTI. Integrating diverse perspectives and expertise can enhance CTI and deliver tangible value to our stakeholders.'
