Description: Digital and communication technologies have revolutionised humanity; however, cyber attacks pose a constant threat that transcends national boundaries. As such, collaborative international approaches to cybersecurity are needed. Cybersecurity has traditionally been a male-dominated field. However, at Cardiff Metropolitan University in the UK, Dr Liqaa Nawaf and her colleagues have established a new, British Council-funded initiative to promote improved gender equality in this field. The project, a collaboration with King Abdulaziz University in Saudi Arabia, aims to facilitate undergraduate and graduate-level training courses, research collaborations, and ecosystems for advancing women in cyber.
