“SecZetta is dedicated to advocating for women in the cybersecurity industry and is working to ensure that our go-to-market strategy reflects that commitment,” said David Pingnolet, CEO and founder, SecZetta. “By partnering with leading WBENC and Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) certified companies like BPS and LiquidPC, we are able to bring the value of SecZetta’s solutions to organizations supporting diversity suppliers.”
While statistics have been gradually improving, a report by Cybersecurity Ventures states that women make up just 20% of the cybersecurity workforce, while an (ISC)2 study, brings that number closer to a still unsatisfactory 25%. Advocating for more women in cybersecurity not only brings with it the obvious benefits of diversity in leadership and problem-solving skills, but also helps address the severe resource gap within the industry. For SecZetta, an effective commitment to diversity extends across in-house employment practices to business partner opportunities. We believe advocating for women and women-owned companies is part of an industry-wide shared responsibility and will help ensure that there are adequate cybersecurity resources going forward.
“At BPS, which is also California Public Utility Certified (CPUC) and Woman Small Business (WSOB) certified, we have built a reputation for solving difficult security and compliance problems by delivering world-class solutions for the healthcare industry, public utilities and other highly-regulated industries,” said Katherine Bluma, CEO and founder, BPS. “As the sole woman-owned cybersecurity company in the Southwest, United States, BPS is uniquely able to provide organizations looking to partner with diversity suppliers with SecZetta’s Third-Party Identity Risk solution.”
