DSbD is proud to be taking part to this event organised by Women in Cyber Wales. This is a national cyber security conference for women and allies on 22nd February 2024 at the ICC Wales. The event will celebrate the work that women are doing in the sector, showcasing their talent across a breadth of different roles and demonstrating the importance of an inclusive workforce.
