“Today SC Media shines a spotlight on 20 business leaders as part of our 2023 Women in IT Security program. The accomplishments of those honored range from industry veterans, power players, women to watch and powerful advocates for cybersecurity — each a leader who happens to be women. Now in its tenth year, SC Media’s Women in IT Security program underscores the importance of identifying talent beyond traditional definitions. Each of these honorees have significantly influenced the cybersecurity conversation, inspiring both women and men. This program isn’t just about business leaders, but celebrating their significant contributions.”

Gate 15’s Founder and Managing Director, Andy Jabbour said, “Jen is one of five recognized “Cybersecurity Veterans,” women who have delivered consistent performance and innovation over long careers. Jen is an exceptional person and teammate and her nomination was submitted by a team of us who truly appreciate and value all she does across Gate 15 and numerous projects helping to secure our nation’s critical infrastructure and vital communities. Jen’s always too modest to celebrate herself so, please help us celebrate Jen on LinkedIn!”
