Grasping opportunities in cybersecurity with Microsoft and Tata STRIVE

Offering opportunities to graduates from different backgrounds and rural areas is one of o9’s core missions. Last month we partnered with Microsoft to support girls in their aims to work in tech and excel in STEM education. Microsoft and Tata STRIVE have a partnership to implement the CyberShikshaa program, helping female engineering graduates from humble backgrounds join the digital industry and meet the demand for cybersecurity-trained professionals. Tata STRIVE tied up with Tata Communications Limited and Tata Consultancy Services to develop a standardized course for all of India. Tata STRIVE aims to train more than 900 young girls over three years. The training program will take place in Tata STRIVE Skill Development Centers and various educational institutes. Participants receive around 576 hours of learning and get a certification from Microsoft and Tata STRIVE upon completion. So far, 108 students have completed the course, and o9 was delighted to get involved and find two great candidates to join o9. After going through the selection and interview process, o9 hired two interns, Shruti Srivastava and Varshita Bedi. They are both now part of o9’s cyber security team, a massive milestone in their budding careers. In a short interview, both new interns shared their memorable stories from the Tata STRIVE program. According to the research, only about 14% of the cybersecurity workforce comprises women. The further we climb the ladder, the more acute this problem becomes;...
