Due to the rise of cybercrime, companies prioritize cybersecurity, which is one of the most in-demand jobs today. Cybersecurity Ventures reported that there were 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs in 2021, which grew from 1 million just seven years earlier. Numerous companies have made commitments to upskill in the cybersecurity space; the time to kickstart your cybersecurity career is NOW!
In recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we have partnered with Microsoft on a two-part series: “See Yourself in Cyber.” For our first session, we invite you to join us for an interactive conversation with Claudia Farrington, US Security, and Identity Usage Lead, on how she pivoted into cyber and recommendations and advice on where to start your own path to a career in cybersecurity.
Participants will also get a FREE Microsoft Certification Exam Voucher for attending the program series.

Claudia is a global integrated marketing wizard, a storyteller, and an avid learner. She believes in the power of technology as an amplifier of human capacity, and my purpose is to influence behavioral change through the power of human connection (communication). She has over twenty years of experience designing and implementing marketing and event strategies. Her process is simple; she uses a combination of data and marketing intuition to connect with audiences that are highly technical, complex, and above all, human. She’s the type of brand champion that brings the brand to life by tapping into storytelling and experiential marketing. At the core, she is a curious, intuitive, highly collaborative, and agile marketing strategist. She has a proven record of delivering impactful solutions for Top-500 companies and complex business ecosystems. Most importantly, she is a Latina geek at heart. She was born and raised abroad and has faced many challenges to claim a seat at the table; just like you, she has a story to share. She is honored to join the conversation and share her story, hacks, and tricks to build a solid career in tech.
