Career Reality Check: What Cyber Isn’t Telling You
Ask Me Anything Cyber is a live, interactive discussion hosted by Sofia C. V. and Prapti P., focused on the realities of working in cybersecurity.
This session will explore common misconceptions about the field, including the idea that you need to be a hacker to succeed, that certifications guarantee a job, and that technical skills alone are enough to stand out. It will also touch on burnout, business-driven security decisions, and the value of communication, curiosity, consistency, and real-world exposure.
Joining the conversation will be guest Brenda Johnson, who will also speak about The WOMEN IN SECURITY Documentary, a film that highlights the women reshaping the security industry through real stories, lived experiences, and leadership journeys.
