Women in Cyber Security (WiCyS) Conference: Dallas 2025

Our Women in Cyber Security (WiCyS) Student Chapter attended the international WiCyS Conference Dallas 2025, connecting with global cybersecurity leaders.

The WiCyS Conference celebrates the power of community, advancing cybersecurity careers and championing diversity in tech. It includes inspiring keynotes, hands-on workshops, networking opportunities and vibrant showcases of talent.

Our Women in Cyber Security Student Chapter members achieved scholarships to attend the 2025 conference in Dallas and represent the University. They joined other students, professionals and industry leaders from across the world, united by the shared commitment of closing the gender gap in cybersecurity.

Beyond the conference, the group took full advantage of their time in Texas, exploring the vibrant city of Dallas and the surrounding Fort Worth Stockyards.
