#BlackHistoryMonth is coming to an end on March 1. It is important to take this moment in time to pause and reflect on our history, privileges, and struggles. Building allyship through our actions and programs is vital. For Exclusive Networks, this will mean bringing more diversity to our organization in our hiring plans — including using the support of apprenticeships to bring talent from black communities into the world of #cybersecurity.   Within our existing organization, we will continually strive to be mindful about how we interact with vendors and partners to promote inclusion and continue to develop our own staff in a mindset of diversity, inclusion, and belonging. #WeAreExclusive

Yesterday marked the commencement of an enriching 8-month internship journey with Cybergirls, and it was nothing short of enlightening. Here are some key takeaways from the guest speakers who graciously shared their wisdom: - There is a difference between Inspiration, Aspiration and Perspiration. A lot of us at the beginning of the journey get inspired by the word cybersecurity and forget about the work required to achieve the name. That's where aspiration and perspiration comes in.Apiration and Perspiration is what fuels the journey moving forward because there will be lots of frustration, self questioning and reasons to give up. Remember, perseverance triumphs over fleeting inspiration when facing the inevitable challenges. - The need for networking, mentorship and sisterhood. I am grateful to cybergirls for giving me that opportunity to start my growth in the community of like-minded sisters. - Lastly the need to never give up. Keep applying for even roles you feel is impossible for you. - Every disagreement should be seen as an opportunity, make use of it. #Growth# #Cybergirls# #Cybersecurity#

Meet the Team: Cameron Lewis, 3CT Security, Co-Founder & CEO 🤓 👋   You've likely noticed his name appearing quite a bit.. But now we’re letting you get to know one of our founders, inside and out:    From an early age, Cameron had always been interested in starting his own company. Growing up, he cultivated an entrepreneurial spirit in his endeavours, and this was fostered by both his parents and 3CT’s current Chairman and Cameron’s mentor. 🖥   At the age of 16, Cameron joined a company in the local science park for two weeks over the summer holidays for work experience. During this time, he was introduced to cyber security and the world of business, which led him to gain a place in CADS and was subsequently offered an apprenticeship due to his leadership ability. This inspired him to focus on developing a company and experiences that focus on providing future younger generations with opportunities in cyber and business. 🌱   Cameron then founded 3CT Security, where he saw the gap in the market for consultancy services based on trust, and that centred each client’s individual circumstances and business challenges at the forefront of the services being provided - resulting in 3CT’s tailored and client-centric approach to partnership. 🛡   “𝟯𝗖𝗧 𝗦𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗱𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀.

More new talent training to enter the cybersecurity profession!

Excited to share the final task of my Cyberdosti internship - a comprehensive presentation on "Digital Forensic Lab Setup." 💻🕵️♂️ I dove into the intricate world of digital forensics, exploring the hardware and software requirements for a state-of-the-art forensic lab. I've also walked you through the step-by-step configuration of forensic analysis workstations, lab organization, and best practices for evidence handling. Digital forensics is not just about solving cybercrimes; it's about preserving data integrity and ensuring the reliability of evidence in legal proceedings. It's a field where the right tools, practices, and setup make all the difference. I'd like to express my gratitude to the Cyberdosti team for this incredible learning experience, and I look forward to applying this knowledge in real-world scenarios. 🙌 If you want to learn more about digital forensics or have any questions about the presentation, feel free to reach out. Let's keep the conversation going! 🔍🔐 #DigitalForensics #Cybersecurity #Internship #Cyberdosti #DigitalInvestigations

Hello LI, tagged for #simplycybercommunitychallenge today!!! I just wanted to say hello to all of you beautiful people Simply Cyber   Attended DeVry in late 80s for the EET (Electronic Engineering Technician) degree, Phoenix, AZ. Unfortunately, 3 part time jobs and student loans were not enough to live on for the spendy trimesters and I was unable to compete with out-of-state tuition.   Devastated, I left DeVry to join the Air Force hoping to continue my passion in the digital world. I accumulated enough credits to join as an E-3 (Airman First Class - 2 stripes). My first base was Cannon Air Force Base, the only school out there was agriculture not electronic science. No education here.   CAFB brought me different solutions, I volunteered in different areas of our squadron. Using my DeVry education, I volunteered in our squadron computer section to help repair and install new computers and software...finally a small break. I carried this volunteer opportunity to many bases I was stationed, and it helped me stay grounded to the digital world. Eventually I had to give up an electronic degree I was fond of and switched to Business degree from Park University. During this time in the military I was able to participate and execute various inspections, audits, examinations, and investigations. In hindsight, I believe it has laid the groundwork for my enthusiasm for GRC.   After retiring from the Air Force as a vehicle fleet manager, I looked to continue my path with an MBA from Boise State University (BSU). At the same time I started my MBA I also started a new job for the Idaho Department of Finance. Here is where I cemented my passion for Fintech and investigating/Examining various business entities. I just could not absorb enough information about catching bad guys through audits...LOVED THIS JOB. During my 5th class, I connected with another student from New Jersey, and we talked about our passions. The timing could not have been any better because I found out that BSU was starting a new master’s in Cyber Operations & Resilience. I spoke with Sin Ming Loo and Ed Vasko, CISSP at a physical coffee shop and immediately jumped at the chance to reignite my digital passion. A family issue arose and I had to leave my excellent career to focus on my newly born granddaughter. Undeterred, I used my military experience in the military combined with troubleshooting techniques and the education from BSU, I landed two internships. 1 internship was for a non-profit sanctuary for birds and the other was in Idaho’s Information Technology Services from the Governor’s Office. Complete opposite ends of the cyber spectrum. A few months of each internship, I had a solid understanding of cyber maturity. My networking, education, internships, and work landed me a job at Procellis Technology Inc where I conduct interviews for self-assessments of NIST 800-171, provide executive summary, findings report, and a PoAM of HBCUs. I still have a desire to catch bad guys.

Excited to announce that I just received an offer letter from Cyberdosti and joining Cyberdosti as a Digital Forensics Intern! Huge thanks to Cyberdosti for the internship offer letter! I can't wait to dive into the world of digital forensics, learn from the experts, and get my hands on some cutting-edge tools used to fight cybercrime. Looking forward to being part of the team and contributing in any way I can! Cyberdosti #offerletter #digitalforensics #cyberforensics
