Forte Women's Breakfast at Black Hat USA 2025
Event Overview
We are excited to extend an invitation for you to attend the Forte Women's Breakfast on August 7th from 8:00am to 10:00am, hosted by World Wide Technology and BlackCloak. Join us for a meaningful gathering of women in cybersecurity as we explore the theme “Mental Wellness in Cybersecurity.” In a high-stress, high-stakes industry, mental health is often overlooked—especially for those navigating the dual challenges of technical intensity and underrepresentation. This event brings together a powerful lineup of speakers including clinical psychologists specializing in occupational stress and resilience, as well as thought leaders and advocates for neurodivergent inclusion in the workplace. Whether you’re a leader, practitioner, or aspiring professional, this gathering offers a supportive space to connect, reflect, and prioritize the human side of cyber.
