VetSec is where veterans go to find a world-class community that is here to help them find meaningful employment in technology with a focus on cybersecurity. We do this, first and foremost, by creating a community welcoming all veterans and transitioning military. Second, we partner with world-class training providers to help with low or no-cost training for our members. Finally, we couple that with events to assist in hiring those that have served, like conference participation and our own virtual conference, VetSecCon.
We are a home for those who served – those who are transitioning into or wanting to upskill into cybersecurity. We offer a community of like-minded veterans and a bridge to transition from the military into meaningful employment, with resources and guidance along the way.
