Sausalito, Calif. – May 20, 2024 / WomenKnowCyber.com
Cybersecurity Ventures published a book in 2019 — “Women Know Cyber: 100 Fascinating Females Fighting Cybercrime” — which is available on Amazon. The book was so popular that we produced a documentary by the same name. Over the past four years, we’ve received countless requests for a new edition. We are excited to provide you with our 2024 edition of Women Know Cyber, in a new online directory format, featuring cybersecurity experts from across the globe, with varying backgrounds, who stand out for protecting governments, businesses, and people from cybercrime — and for their contributions to the community.
