Celebrating Women in Cybersecurity
From The Editor's Desk
In this special issue, we shine a spotlight on some of the women who are making waves in the cybersecurity field. We hope to inspire and encourage other women to pursue careers in this exciting and dynamic industry through our interviews and profiles. The issue features interviews with women who have overcome the challenges of being a minority in a male-dominated industry. Their stories offer valuable insights into women’s unique experiences and perspectives in cybersecurity. We believe that diversity and inclusion are essential for the growth and success of any industry, and the cybersecurity industry is no exception. It is time for women to break through the barriers and contribute their skills and knowledge to cybersecurity.
We have also listed the Top 10 Women in Cybersecurity for this issue. We are thrilled to announce the winners of our Women in Cybersecurity initiative!

Our Past Issues
The advent of AI is revolutionizing both the world and cybersecurity, yet significant challenges remain. The Cyber Express has consulted with leading industry experts to uncover insights that will illuminate the AI transformation.
The latest issue of The Cyber Express explores the role of AI in securing digital assets, followed by its benefits and challenges. Stay ahead on this important topic and don’t miss out on valuable insights.
This issue is mostly divided into two major parts. The Year Ender section focuses on what majorly happened, while the Forecast section talks more about what can happen in 2023. More than 30 cybersecurity influencers have shared their thought on that very subject. We believe these predictions will help you make wise business decisions in the future.
This time we have also gone ahead and done our best to recognize the stalwarts of the cybersecurity industry.. The Cyber Express team is proud to acknowledge the efforts of all the individuals who have dedicated their lives to protect our organizations from cyber threats.
The fabric of our society is, more or less, defined by the technology we use. And with the increasing importance of technology, it is even more imperative that cybersecurity is at the core of not just every technology but even the ethos. Here, we firmly believe that every cybersecurity incident must become a wake-up call for organizations and individuals to put enough stress on the security of the cyber realm we live in.
In this issue, we have also interviewed several industry stalwarts, beginning from the likes of David Cross, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of Oracle SaaS Cloud; James C. Foster, the Chief Executive Officer of ZeroFOX, who shared their thoughts on the newest cybersecurity trends and the best practices that need to be established. We hope you enjoy reading this issue.
