How prepared do you feel to face today’s cyberthreats? Would you like to explore these from a gender lens?👩🏽💻🔒👾
This is exactly the conversation we will have on April 16, and we’d love for you to be part of it.
The Cybersecurity Section of the Organización de los Estados Americanos is hosting the webinar “Take Control of Your Digital Security.”
Here’s what you’ll walk away with:
✅ A clearer picture of the intersection between gender and digital risk
✅A deeper understanding of why learning about digital security through a gender-responsive lens matters
✅ A sneak peek of our new free online course ‘Our Networks, Our Security.’
🎤 Meet Sametria McKinney — CIRT Director at the Office of the Prime Minister of The Bahamas 🇧🇸, bringing frontline expertise in national incident response and joining us for a lightning talk during our upcoming webinar.
Why should we talk about gender and digital security? 🧐
🟦 Because the risks are not the same for everyone. Studies show that between 16% and 58% of women and girls around the world have experienced online violence (UN Women). Yet digital security tools, training, and responses are rarely designed with them in mind — and that gap has real consequences.
🟦 Understanding cybersecurity through a gender lens isn’t just about inclusion. It’s about building stronger, more resilient communities online.
