Secure & Strong Partners with Women in Tech & Cyber Hub (WITCH)

At Core to Cloud, we believe the future of cybersecurity is inclusive, empowering, and community-driven. That’s why we’re proud to announce a meaningful new partnership between Secure & Strong, our community-focused initiative, and WITCH – Women in Tech & Cyber Hub.

Building a More Inclusive Cyber Future

WITCH is a passionate and growing network dedicated to supporting women across the technology and cyber industries. Their mission aligns perfectly with our values at Core to Cloud: driving change, building connections, and ensuring all voices are heard.

Through this new partnership, Secure & Strong will support WITCH’s efforts to:

  • Foster inclusive communities for women working in cyber and tech
  • Promote diverse career pathways into the industry
  • Create space for women to lead, speak, and be seen

This really is a commitment to reshaping the industry. Together, we’re creating real opportunities for mentorship, collaboration, and visibility.

United by a Common Goal

Our collaboration with WITCH for this special event marks an exciting first step in supporting greater equity in the cyber industry. Together, we’ve created a space to celebrate, connect, and elevate the brilliant women shaping the future of tech.

This event features a strong community focus and meaningful conversations around representation and inclusion – values that sit at the heart of both Core to Cloud and WITCH.

We’re also grateful to be joined by cybersecurity innovators Abnormal, Immersive, and Panorays, whose sponsorship has helped bring this event to life.

“Partnering with WITCH is so important to ensuring that we can spread the message of equity, inclusion and encouraging more women and girls to get involved in tech and cyber” says Emily Drakeley, Marketing Manager at Core to Cloud. “We’re proud to stand alongside an organisation that’s genuinely shifting the narrative in our industry.”

Illyana Mullins, founder of WITCH, expressed her enthusiasm about the collaboration: “At WITCH, we believe that real change in tech and cybersecurity stems from collaboration. Our partnership with Core to Cloud embodies our mutual commitment to not only bringing more women into the industry but also supporting them throughout their careers. We’re proud to work with a team that recognises the importance of community, visibility, and hands-on support. Together, we’re building environments where women are seen, heard, and empowered to lead.”
