Leading the Way to a Secure Aotearoa
See you in

Join Xero, Secure Code Warrior and She Sharp for an interactive evening built to bring women and female-identifying people together around the future of cybersecurity and AI — a community to connect with, skills to build, leaders to hear from, and a good many ways to help shape a safer Aotearoa.
Whether you already work in cybersecurity or are looking to break into it, whether you are curious about where AI and security meet or simply ready for your next step in tech, there is a place for you here.
You’ll get hands-on experience with secure coding using Secure Code Warrior’s interactive, gamified approach. Take on real vulnerable code, find the flaw, understand what went wrong, and fix it, against a leaderboard and a clock. Code your way in Java Spring, Python, JavaScript or Ruby, or take the pseudocode option and work on the concepts without committing to a language at all.
Around the tournament, women leaders will join a panel discussion on The Critical Role of Cybersecurity in AI, sharing their own journeys and the pathways that took them into cybersecurity and AI. There are prizes for whoever finishes on top. Bring a laptop and a charger.
