Cybersecurity should be practical and approachable. I am Paula Sofia Gomez, an Information Security Analyst focused on helping people understand, trust, and apply cybersecurity, risk, and identity concepts in real life.
This week, I had the opportunity to come full circle, returning to a program that once helped shape my entrepreneurial journey while also connecting with leaders who are creating opportunities across our community.
Success is most meaningful when we use it to create opportunities for others. This fall, I'm proud to support initiatives focused on mentorship, education, and community impact.
Two of the most important lessons I’ve learned this year have nothing to do with technology, yet they apply perfectly to cybersecurity: you don’t succeed alone, and consistency beats intensity.
