In memoriam, Mari Kert - St Aubyn

The Women4Cyber Foundation is named after Mari Kert - St Aubyn, who is an embodiment of what women can achieve in the cybersecurity domain, both in public and private sectors, and who sadly lost the long fight against cancer in spring 2019.

We miss you and always remember!
