We will cooperate with universities to establish a mentoring program to provide career advisory, tutoring and other activities for female students interested in developing careers in the cybersecurity industry.
University Student Cyber Mentor Program. To encourage more talented female professionals to develop careers in the cybersecurity industry, we will design and provide training and mentorship programs for female employees in Risk Advisory Cyber Service to improve their technique, skills, leadership and career path planning to enhance their competitiveness and impact in the industry. Deloitte WIC Career Development Program. We will invite female employees with notable achievements in Risk Advisory Cyber Service to share their insights on career development, and organize online and in-person events, including tea parties, to provide female employees with experience-sharing and communication channels. Deloitte China's Cyber Service will continue to encourage more female leadership to improve the ratio of female cyber partners and directors. However, within the Firm's Risk Advisory Cyber Service team of nearly 300 people, 47% of professionals and 21% of partners and directors are women. As of fiscal year 2020, 61% of Deloitte China's employees, and 35% of its partners and directors, are women. The program aims to help female cyber professionals adapt to a rapidly changing career environment, raise public awareness of the challenges and opportunities for women in the cybersecurity industry, and provide a platform for women to demonstrate their professionalism.ĭeloitte China continuously implements its global ALL IN strategy, having established the Female Leadership Committee to gather professionals of different genders and from various regions and functions as representatives to promote the effectiveness of the design, implementation and oversight of Firm-wide female leadership programs. 
To increase the involvement of talented women in the cybersecurity industry, Deloitte has developed the Global Women in Cyber (WIC) program, which will be officially launched on 8 March – International Women's Day 2021. Encouraging more capable women to enter the cybersecurity industry can reduce the sector's labor shortage and introduce diverse perspectives, leadership and experience, which will further benefit companies and society. According to one survey, in the global cybersecurity workforce, about 24% of employees are women 1, and the ratio of female CIOs/CTOs is only 18% 2. However, the IT industry and the emerging cybersecurity industry have for the past few decades been dominated by men, with very few female executives. With economic development and social change, female leadership is playing an increasingly important role in every sector.
