CyberLX

Bridge the Cybersecurity Leadership Gap

Your cybersecurity leaders are critical to the secure operations of your organization. They’ve proven they have the technical skills and knowledge to do the job, but do they have the leadership skills necessary to be a trusted, strategic partner? Only 22% of cyber leaders have any managerial experience before moving into the role. That’s less than any other tech function.

The Cybersecurity Leadership Experience (The CyberLX) builds the leadership skills cyber leaders need today to transform them into future-ready leaders. Designed and delivered by former cybersecurity executives, participants will engage in a proven combination of workshops, networking, and mentoring. The CyberLX does more than build the next generation of cyber leaders; it creates a powerful cyber community.
