SUMMARY:Webinar | The Exposure Advantage: Leveraging ERGs to Drive Strategic Inclusion and Cyber Resilience
DESCRIPTION:In a 2026 threat landscape defined by AI-driven exploits and complex cloud ecosystems\, the “human element” remains both the greatest vulnerability and the strongest defense. This session\, hosted by the Women@Tenable ERG\, explores how Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) have evolved from social networks into strategic business engines. \nWe will dive into how Tenable leverages its diverse talent pool to close the “AI Exposure Gap\,” improve threat modeling through neurodiversity\, and build a sustainable pipeline of female leadership in technical roles. Attendees will walk away with a blueprint for transforming their own ERGs into high-impact hubs that influence product innovation\, enhance talent retention\, and directly contribute to organizational resilience. \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live. To earn CPE/CEU credits with the following providers\, you must meet the minimum requirements: \n\nGIAC/(ISC)2: attend for a minimum of 45 minutes or the entirety of the webinar\nCompTIA: attend for a minimum of 60 minutes or the entirety of the webinar (webinar topic must relate to the certificate being renewed)\n\nAttendees who meet the requirements can log into BrightTALK to print out their attendance certificates to submit for CPE/CEU credits. \nRegister for this webinar and view the recording if you are unable to join live.

SUMMARY:Webinar | Secure Vibe Coding on AWS
DESCRIPTION:Vibe coding\, the practice of using AI to generate apps and infrastructure\, is reshaping how software gets built\, and security teams need to understand the process before they can effectively apply controls to the developers at their companies. This talk will explore various easy-to-use AI tools\, including Amazon Bedrock\, PartyRock\, and Kiro\, so security practitioners can understand the developer experience. \nCovering IAM policy configuration\, supply chain risks in AI tooling\, and secure code hygiene\, this session gives security professionals the hands-on context they need to build guardrails and guidance for teams that are already vibe coding. No development experience required\, just a security mindset and a willingness to understand what your developers are actually doing. \nWiCyS is proud to provide members the opportunity to earn CPE/CEU credits for attending WiCyS Webinars live. To earn CPE/CEU credits with the following providers\, you must meet the minimum requirements: \n\nGIAC/(ISC)2: attend for a minimum of 45 minutes or the entirety of the webinar\nCompTIA: attend for a minimum of 60 minutes or the entirety of the webinar (webinar topic must relate to the certificate being renewed)\n\nAttendees who meet the requirements can log into BrightTALK to print out their attendance certificates to submit for CPE/CEU credits. \nRegister for this webinar and view the recording if you are unable to join live.
