SentinelOne Partners With WiCys on Veterans’ Apprenticeship Program

Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) partnered with SentinelOne to enhance its new Veterans’ Apprenticeship Program.

WiCyS brings together women and supporters from around the world to develop cybersecurity skills with the aim of advancing women in, building equity in and developing minority talent in the field.

The program will give women the support, training, and access to opportunities that will enable fulfilling careers.

One of WiCyS’s focuses is bridging the cybersecurity skills gap for female veterans, which is what helped launch the Veterans’ Program. Military career experience aligns well with a job in cybersecurity. Females make up only 10% of the veteran population but tend to have higher rates of unemployment, single parenting and homelessness.
