OUR MISSION
We wish to recognize and celebrate the achievements of women through the FAST Award. Currently, women make up only 10-25% of the security and technology workforce. Through an increase in diversity and further inclusion, we hope more women will enter these fields and retention rates will increase. In Canada, research shows 50% of women drop out of technology fields within the first four years of their careers.
