Why I created The Source

As an award-winning cybersecurity leader, bestselling author and women's change agent, who's been in cyber for over two decades, I've spoken to thousands of women about how they feel and what they want. I've even written a book about it!

And what I've discovered is that women in cyber feel alone, undervalued, unheard. and overworked. They're yearning for a safe haven, a community. Not as a place that is anti-men but a place that is so pro-women that you start by thinking you’re surrounded by smart, successful women with amazing ideas, and then you realise that you are one of them!

Women like you are vital

In my book, IN Security, I outlined research showing that women have a unique perspective on risk. And that our intuition, social, and emotional intelligence are essential to noticing and dealing with major security breaches. But we’re still underrepresented in the profession. And more of you are leaving than entering it.

The brain drain is unacceptable. As a woman, you’re more likely to experience discrimination, burnout, feel undervalued, and earn less than your male peers. You need support in your career, and now, before it's too late. Or, the industry is in danger of losing an invaluable resource that society depends upon.

Our Values At The Source

For women in cyber and businesses who value them.

The Source means the place you go to first, someone or something that supples an endless supply of what's needed or that connects things. And that’s what we’re doing. We're giving women and businesses who value them a touchstone. A community. A place to land when the world they live in is so fast-flowing and they need to access valuable information, experience, and connections for their continued success, with speed and ease.

At The Source, we value prosperity and believe in limitless potential. We know that for modern progressive businesses, employee happiness, productivity and wellbeing requires community, collaboration and effective tools that prevent rather than cure unfair treatment, burnout, or unnecessary employee turnover.

We value union, progression, evolution and working smarter not harder. We believe we are better together and that’s why we align with other women’s groups and networks, in a spirit of sharing and collaboration.  

At The Source, we also value philanthropy and that's why we align to the UN Sustainability Goals 5, 10 and 16, and have a women’s foundation for scholarships.

Listen to our story to understand more

 

Who is The Source for?

The Source is for women from entry level to leader level, including entrepreneurs, women returning to the workplace and women wanting a career pivot. It's for businesses who value women, too and who want to attract and retain them. These organisations know they need to provide women with practical support to help them thrive in a male dominated world of cyber.

If you’re at the beginning of your career, then being part of a varied community of women in the industry means you can see what's possible for you, and work towards your goals with their help and experience.

If you've been around for a bit longer, then you'll be able to build useful strategic partnerships plus be able to inspire the next generation by being a role model.

Who do you meet at The Source?

At The Source you’ll meet trusted sources from within cybersecurity and outside of it. These are leaders and skilled practitioners who we’ve hand-picked for you, and who are well equipped to teach you on our live masterclasses. As an active community, each week our members are meeting new peers from other industries around the globe and from the full ecosystem. They’re having two-way conversations, getting more insight, finding mentors, accountability buddies, business partners and enjoying new business opportunities. The Source is where the magic happens.

What you get at The Source

Learn with Live Masterclasses

Hand picked skilled practitioners from inside cyber and beyond it facilitating your development. Trusted sources including some of the biggest names in cyber dive into topics that will make a real difference to your career (and your life). With live Q&As plus coaching you can progress and evolve.

Network with a Global Community

Focused on bringing you together, as a member of The Source you get access to all members and our Members Directory. To help you get ahead and so you can better chart your own path, you can find peers for support and accountability, plus mentors. Or you can let us find them for you.

This is where we really join things up, leading you to where you need to go and to finding what you need.

In our community you can talk with women who are at a similar level to you, share struggles and wins only women have, and get to know others in the industry.

At The Source, we open you up to the possible by providing you with a safe place to practice raising your voice and stepping outside of your comfort zone, knowing someone there has your back.

As a member, you can find a group that works for you, or even lead and co-create projects to impact the industry!

Our regular networking events break the norm and help you make valuable connections in a way that’s fun and not the corporate boredom-fest! And as we collaborate with other women’s groups and training companies, you can further expand your networks and support. 

Access to Useful & Time Saving Resources 

We don't want you to trawling through the Internet for hours looking for information or contacts. Instead, we're giving you a short cut, and I know you’re going to find this so convenient and refreshing.  

With the help of our partners we feature quality career opportunities and information about the companies that value women and are committed to making women standard not exception. 

In our one-stop-shop for scholarships you can cut through the confusing criteria and find the opportunity that’s perfect for you. 

You get access to cutting edge and honest research that informs our careers as women in the industry. So you can keep up to date with everything you need to know. And you can get involved with the research we’re creating to fill in the data gaps. Got your own research project? Then tap into our network for help with data. 

We want to champion our community, so in our stories, publications and podcast streams, you can read and hear about women who’ve taken the industry by storm and carved out their own piece of it, inspring you to do the same. 

How is The Source Different?

The Source provides a single source for women in cyber and in addition to our resources and communities, we collaborate and co-create with other women's groups, trainers and partners who value women.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Source is for women in cyber, and we’re here for women of all levels, from entry level to leader level, including entrepreneurs, and for women returners and women who want a change of career.

So if you're feeling alone, unheard, unrecognised, and undervalued, are on the verge of burnout, are fed up having your expertise questioned, and working twice as hard as your male peers, often when you're more qualified, or you're taking the lion’s share of the office housework and having to negotiate and compromise on pay and titles then we want you to come and join us. We can show you how to work smarter not harder, and how to be you in the workplace, whilst reaping the rewards. 

Women need a safe place to come together and evolve. The Harvard Business Review found that women need women-only networks to succeed in business, even if they are already part of co-ed ones.  Access to women-only networks helps close the earnings gap between men and women in business.

Within a women-only network you can find everything you need to move that needle. To develop your confidence in yourself, your agency, and to stop asking for permission.

You can tap into the knowledge, experience, and support of women who know where you are. Women who’ve been in your place, dealt with the same struggles, and carved out a path to success that you can follow.

The Source is where all the networks for women in cyber meet. It's the first place you go and your playbook. It’s your wellspring and watering hole. Where you build your network, grow your potential, co-create with like-minded women, and access essential resources for your career. It’s the safe and positive environment you need to:

  • Crowdsource intelligence,
  • Experiment with new ways of being,
  • Forge strategic relationships
  • Cross-pollinate ideas
  • Collaborate
  • Build playbooks for advancing your career

The Source is different to other women in cyber/ tech groups because of our sheer functionality, vibe, and solutioning.  At The Source we’re not only bringing you resources under one roof, but we’re collaborating with other women’s groups and training providers. So rather than compete with others, we’re partnering and collaborating, which makes it so much more efficient and useful for you.

Thie Source isn’t just another women’s group. It’s the source of all women in cyber groups - a place for you to belong, to rally together with other women, as a global community, and to have fun. We're a sisterhood like no other, where you feel supported and inspired. Where you can see true transformation in yourself, and in those around you. It’s a place to build strength and courage, where you can return to again and again to fill your cup.

At The Source you’ll meet trusted sources from within cybersecurity and outside of it. These are leaders and skilled practitioners who we’ve hand-picked for you, and who are well equipped to teach on our live masterclasses. As an active community, each week our members are meeting new peers from other industries around the globe, and from the full ecosystem. They’re having two-way conversations, getting more insight, finding mentors, accountability buddies, business partners and enjoying new business opportunities. The Source is where the magic happens.

When you join the Ripple membership, you'll get:

  • Live masterclasses and coaching. Typically, we've got two running each month with one for professional development and another for personal development
  • Access to our Masterclass Library so you catch up on our classes
  • Discounts on all our deeper dive trainings and exclusive events
  • Access to our Members Directory so you can upload your personal profile, find other members easily and vice versa

  • Access to Members-only events and experiences

  • The opportunity o be match to a mentor or accountability buddy

  • Access to numerous, niche communities for 24/7 support and guidance

  • A vault of valuable resources all in one place, which is being added to continually

  • Access to jobs and partners

With this membership, you'll get all of Ripple plus:

  • Access to our monthly career clinic. These are held online, and will run for around 1-hour on the first Monday of every month at midday. You'll benefit from personalised feedback and be able to collaborate in an intimate setting with women who are committed to taking their career to the next level, like you.

  • Access to a private Big Splash Community so you can ask questions and gain support when you need it

  • Personal hot-line to Jane for questions

  • Priority on all events, so you don't miss out when numbers are limited

I’ve lost count of the number of quality clients, speaking opportunities, and promotions that I’ve landed because of the people I know. Either it’s through referrals (“you should really give Jane a call, she’s exactly what you need”), my reputation (“I keep hearing people mention you when they talk about security”), or just a heads up (“Jane, this opportunity is about to come up, you should check it out”).

Who you know matters.

And having a safe and positive space to make those connections, having access to a global community of women working in your field, is invaluable.

You could find your new mentor and work out a plan to double your salary in a year.

You could connect with a peer and decide to launch a new service together.

You could attend one of our live masterclasses and address your Imposter Syndrome once and for all so you finally receive the promotion or pay rise you’ve worked for..

So, I guess the question should be - can you afford not to get involved?

When you join The Source, you can start slowly with a freemium investment. Jump in and watch out masterclasses for free, and then build up to mentoring and investing in our community. 

If you want to get ahead - you need a community. 

Come and join ours.

I know your calendar is full. I know that you’re doing all the extra “stuff” that needs to be done around the office. I know that you’re working twice as hard as the men in the room. So the last thing you need is something else to do, right?

Well, like we said at the top of the page - it’s not about working harder; it’s about working smarter.

You could spend hours, days even, slogging away at work doing the heavy lifting. 

Or you could spend a few minutes each day building your skills, having your questions answered, getting support and making connections in our community. And then take those skills, that confidence, those connections, to make your work life run more smoothly. To get quicker buy-in from your stakeholders. To be picked for projects or new business. To win contracts with ease. To feel more enlightened, inspired and fulfilled.

There’s a cost to working unproductively. 

But by working smarter, think of all the time in your day that would save.

Think of the time you’d save simply by being less anxious.

Isn’t your mental health worth it?

You’ve had it drummed into you, through school, college, and your early years in the industry, that what will tip the balance is becoming more qualified.

“If people just see the list of accreditations I’ve worked so hard to get, then they’ll recognise my value.”

But this doctrine of gaining power through knowledge is a myth. It’s not what you know, but who you know - remember?

The connections you make, and the reputation you build do more than any piece of paper to supercharge your career. 

With The Source you’re in the right room with the right people at the right time. You can make the links that lead to the next rung of the ladder. You can learn from your peers and those who’ve climbed further. And you can practice the skills you need to be valued, seen, and fairly compensated in your field.

The Source is a mix of business and social. We have online masterclasses, deeper dive trainings, communities, events, and resources. We will also be offering offline events, as we come out of the pandemic. To get started, all you need to do is:

  1. Choose your membership
  2. Login 
  3. Start mixing and turbo boosting your career and life

Success is a personal affair and it's essential you get clear on what looks good right at the start. It will also vary for you depending on where you are in your career. 

For us, at The Source, it's when you feel heard, recognised, rewarded, energised, and fulfilled. It’s when you grow clearer, stronger, and braver. It’s when you’ll see yourself with more confidence and do things differently. And it’s when you feel like you belong.

So success to us means you’re not burning out. It’s when you think better, deliver higher quality work, and are fairly compensated for it. And it’s when we as a community come together to build our power and to contribute to the industry and positively impact our planet.

We are a global community so there will always be women who are available in your timezone and times when we schedule masterclasses for your timezone. If you can’t make a live masterclasses don’t worry. We record them all so you can always get access to one at a time to suit you. Even if you’re unable to attend live, you’ll still be able to email us your questions and benefit from the online community aspect.

Yes you can. You can upgrade as soon as you want. To downgrade, all we ask if you give us a month's notice.

Yes we do. We offer a variety of packages and always start with a discovery call. You can reach us by email to discuss further at: [email protected]
