BlackGirlsHack is excited to announce our partnership with NowSecure, a leader in the mobile application security space.

BlackGirlsHack’s founder and Executive Director Tennisha Martin was asked to speak to one of NowSecure’s employee resource groups a few months ago and talked to them about the importance of taking real action to increase diversity in cybersecurity. That action, could look like many things, but it was important that it was actually an action and not a discussion.

NowSecure’s CEO Alan Snyder immediately took up the call to action and offered to donate mobile penetration testing training and vouchers for certification to the BlackGirlsHack squad.They also took the unprecedented step of not just providing a set number of licenses but making it available for everyone.

BlackGirlsHack members started receiving their NowSecure Academy welcome messages and getting started on their training last week. Check out NowSecure and how they’re helping to secure the mobile space.
