​To this day, GCH is committed to close the gender Gap in cybersecurity and give visibility to issues that prevent women from starting or advancing their careers in the infosec sector​

The gap in diversity talent in cybersecurity positions has disastrous consequences which nowadays we can see in plain sight  given the amount of successful cyberattacks performed by malicious actors around the world​
