"One thing that I learned from the circle was how to come out of my comfort zone and tell my story to other people. When it comes to something technical, I can talk for hours, but apart from that it's very hard for me. So this was one take away for me, apart from all the learnings - both technical and non-technical - that really helped me a lot."

A note from Jen: We built Practical Cybersecurity because we were tired of the fear-mongering in this industry. Security shouldn't be a secret club.
