Cyber women on the Hill

摘要

On May 16, 2017, the Executive Women's Forum on Information Security, Risk Management & Privacy hosted the inaugural EWF Cybersecu-rity Women on Capitol Hill Public Private Symposium. The gathering of 125 women cybersecurity executives was the first ever of its kind. EWF delegates assembled in the Congressional Auditorium and participated in presentations from industry thought leaders and senior Congressional staff members, including the Senate Armed Services and House Homeland Security Committees. The afternoon was spent with over 20 personal bipartisan meetings with Congressional, Senate staff and committee members and concluded with the presentation of the EWF Leadership Award to Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, who sponsored the event.
