Palo Alto Networks is proud to sponsor the Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS) conference, kicking off this Friday in Tucson, Arizona. This annual conference brings together women in cybersecurity from a variety of backgrounds \u2013 academia, industry and research \u2013 for a weekend of networking, mentoring and the opportunity to share their expertise in the field. Encouraging more women to pursue a career in cybersecurity is one of our imperatives as a company, and we\u2019re thrilled to return to WiCyS as a sponsor.<\/p>\n

Rinki will discuss how embracing the unknown and tackling unfamiliar projects helped her discover her true passion in information security and ultimately advanced her career \u2013 even if it presented obstacles at the outset. If you\u2019re headed to Tucson this weekend, you won\u2019t want to miss this inspiring session!<\/p>\n

Cyberthreat Intelligence Analyst Jen Miller-Osborn from Unit 42 and our Principal Information Security Engineer Prajakta Jagdale will also join Rinki, along with Bishop Fox partner Christie Terrill, in a panel session discussing why incident response is a dynamic and engaging career path within cybersecurity.
