CyberScotland

Today is International Women in Cyber Day. A day to focus on a celebrate the women working across cyber security and encourage more women and girls to see a future for themselves in the sector. That's something very close to our hearts at the Cyber and Fraud Centre - Scotland. Our See It Be It programme was created around a simple idea: if you can see people like you working in cyber, it's easier to imagine yourself doing it too. On 2nd October, the See It Be It Conference 2026 returns to Gogarburn, thanks to the generous support of Royal Bank of Scotland, bringing together women working across the sector alongside those interested in finding out where a career in cyber security could take them. It's also a chance to hear real career stories, make connections, ask questions and discover how varied a career in cyber can be. Whether you're already working in the sector, considering a career change, studying, or simply curious about the opportunities available, we'd love you to join us. 📆 2nd October 2026 ⏰ 10:00 - 15:00 📍 Royal Bank of Scotland Gogarburn, Edinburgh 🎟️ Register here - f.mtr.cool/xwzqz9dpq5 And for today, a massive thank you to all the women working in cyber who share their experiences, support others and help the next generation see what's possible.
