Right from my college days, I was always interested in studying a blend of cyber security, law, and policy; and this program was offering exactly that. I took a leap of faith and enrolled for the program, and it turned out to be a lifeline for me. Especially amidst the stressful chemotherapy sessions.
It was a risky decision for me to quit my job and join the CyberShikshaa program full time, but I went for it in March 2019. Studying at C-DAC Bangalore for the CyberShikshaa batch, opened up a pandora's box of learning opportunities for me.
I wish to become one of the women leaders in Data Privacy and Protection in India. The CyberShikshaa Privacy module proved to be the silver lining in my career!
The IT industry is saturated with software developers right now and they need a pool of trained cyber security professionals. I am glad CyberShikshaa found me, and I was able to route my career in this direction.
