Meetup replay: Women Leading Government Cybersecurity

Karina Homme
Senior Director

In support of National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security, we hosted a special edition Microsoft Azure Government Meetup, Women Leading Government Cybersecurity at 1776 in Washington, DC.

In partnership with the Women in Technology DC Chapter of the International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners, government and industry cybersecurity thought leaders joined me on stage for an engaging conversation on various aspects of cybersecurity in government. Our panel discussion was followed by an Azure Security Center demonstration by Yujin Hong from Microsoft.
