In today's fast-paced business landscape, the cloud has become the catalyst for transformation. Organizations worldwide are harnessing its potential to scale effortlessly, accelerate time-to-market, enhance customer responsiveness, and streamline costs. Yet, embracing the cloud entails one crucial aspect that can't be overlooked—security.

As the world’s foremost association of cybersecurity professionals representing more than 365,000 members, candidates and associates worldwide, ISC2 is committed to ensuring our profession reflects the diversity of the world we serve. We believe that our mission of a safe and secure cyber world depends on a diverse, equitable and inclusive cybersecurity workforce. We want to be clear that we stand against legislative measures that not only limit, but in some instances, outlaw the freedom of expression and identity for any underrepresented community. Limiting the freedom of expression and access to healthcare for those in the LGBTQIA+ community in Tennessee – the location of this year’s ISC2 Security Congress conference – is deeply troubling. No one should feel threatened, persecuted or excluded due to discriminatory laws.
