Commissioner’s Welcome

As February unfolds, we embrace Black History Month, a time to celebrate the invaluable contributions and achievements of Black individuals throughout history. In the realm of cybersecurity, we recognize and honor the remarkable strides made by Black professionals in shaping the landscape of digital protection, innovation, and inclusivity.

As we commemorate Black History Month, let us reflect on the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion within our industry. By fostering a more inclusive environment, we not only enrich our collective knowledge but also enhance our ability to tackle emerging threats and challenges.

This issue we also spotlight Jamari Linen, one of the newest members of the NCL Players Committee, Jasmine Jackson, founder of The Accelerated Training Program, as well as highlight the fall 2023 One In Tech Scholarship awardees from across the nation.

Another exciting part of February is that the NCL Spring 2024 Season is upon us! Registration is now open until March 26th.

We hope you enjoy our new bi-monthly editions of "The Decrypted Post" and that you will join us in celebrating the past, present, and future of Black excellence in cybersecurity and the wonderful achievements of the NCL. Together, let's continue to champion diversity and drive positive change within our community.
