The Duchess Of Cyber Security: Making Impacts In The Industry

When you think of cyber security, the prevention of computer hacking, and protection of digital assets comes to mind. After the recent digital hacks of companies such as Yahoo, Equifax, Target and JP Morgan Chase, it is obvious that this reoccurring security issue could use a major reevaluation by some of the brightest minds and experts. One woman making a massive impact in this field is Dr. Chanel Suggs.

Dr. Suggs, known as The Duchess of Cybersecurity ® has been awarded over five certifications through the National Security Agency (NSA) and Committee on National Security Systems (CNSSI).

Recognized by The Washington Post for her work in relation to the breakdown of the mechanics of encryption, Dr. Suggs is an expert cyber security consultant and CEO of Wyvern Security, a company that advises its clients regarding security posture and works to uncover and identify new and emerging cyber threats. Wyvern Security offers services to enhance an organization’s ability to defend against cyber-attacks. They also provide a full life-cycle of cyber security support packages to ensure government agencies and commercial companies can meet their regulatory and business security requirements.

The company’s focus is to consult and educate clients on the importance of cyber security as well as research solutions to stay ahead of data breaches. Wyvern Security is breaking into the field of contracting as they have now begun partnering with companies for NASA opportunities.

“Cyber security is one of those fields where things are always changing,” says Dr. Suggs. “Due to this, you always have opportunities to think outside of the box to fix various issues. Over the years attacks have become much more sophisticated and advanced. It is important to pay attention to the key details as sometimes the smallest detail can explain how a cyber-attack occurred.”

The Duchess of Cybersecurity® will be hosting a booth during the KSC event at the NASA Business Opportunities Expo, on October 23rd, 2018. Dr. Suggs will be speaking at the Cyber-Health Summit in September. Dr. Suggs also plans to host a webinar focused on cryptography and how to keep data safe available on YouTube at “Duchess of Cybersecurity” and DuchessOfCybersecurity.com.
