As we enter the third decade of the 21st century, where do women stand in technology and IT? Kaspersky decided to build on the research it began in 2018, and in 2020 the company spoke to women in Europe, North America, Latin America and the APAC region to find out how they now feel and what has changed over the past two years. There’s plenty of good news: 57% of the women surveyed agree that gender equality has improved in their organization. Even COVID-19 has brought benefits, with working from home helping women feel more autonomous in their roles — boosting their confidence as well as their career prospects. But there’s still a lot to be done in the field to truly empower women.

Many women believe that their career in IT is not always advancing as fast as some of their male counterparts, simply because they face far more challenges during their career path. Our goal is to motivate as many women as possible to pursue a career in IТ and the cybersecurity field and empower them to achieve their true dreams and unleash their hidden potential.
Women in tech project features personal career growth stories, podcasts and general advice from our female employees in the field of cybersecurity and IT, who share their personal experience, talk about their education and how they built their careers. All this helps to prove to many women by concrete examples - nothing can hold them back.
