About us

Our Mission, Vision, and Values

Mission

Not everyone has the same level of access to the cybersecurity industry and at Cyber Empowerment Initiative, we are dedicated to providing inclusive opportunities for disadvantaged, minority, and female youth to unlock the world of cybersecurity. Our mission is to cultivate the future of the cyber workforce to reflect real-world demographics.

Vision

We recognize the importance of fostering diversity within the cybersecurity industry, and we aim to bridge the gap by implementing targeted initiatives enabling underrepresented youth to enter and thrive in this field.

Through these carefully curated programs, CEI seeks to empower youth with the requisite knowledge and skills necessary to excel in the dynamic and evolving landscape of cybersecurity.

Values

Through these concerted efforts, CEI endeavors to create a more diverse, skilled, and inclusive cyber workforce, ensuring that the benefits of the digital age are accessible to all, regardless of background or formal education. As a 501(c)3 organization, we are committed to driving positive societal change in the cybersecurity industry through our mission and initiatives.
