McAfee Teammates Share How They #EmbraceEquity This International Women’s Day
Read Time:3 Minute, 7 Second
International Women’s Day is a time for us to celebrate the achievements and contributions of women at McAfee and around the world. We reflect on progress, the work ahead, and how all of us can create a more equitable and inclusive world.
Collectively we can #EmbraceEquity and raise awareness of how equity leads to equality today and beyond.
See how Team McAfee embraces equity.
“As a father of two daughters, I want them to be able to embrace any opportunities they encounter and be successful at whatever they put they mind to. So, I embrace equity as it creates the best environment for everyone to succeed and simply, it’s just the right thing to do.” Andrew – Software Sales Senior Manager
“In 2023, I’m hopeful that equity will be embraced by all sectors of our society. When we collectively embrace equity, we create a more equal world that strives to be diverse, inclusive and fair.” Fiona, Accounting Senior Manager
“I embrace equity because I believe that everyone deserves to be treated fairly and have equal opportunities, regardless of their background, identity, or personal characteristics.” – Jeremy, Senior UC Engineer
“Embracing equity will help us advance into a future where we appreciate and value uniqueness of each other!” – Ambareen, Senior Manage, Content Operations & QA, DevOps
“I love the #EmbraceEquity theme as it demonstrates how the conversation has progressed to a point where we are having meaningful conversations about why equality is not enough. Equity-based solutions consider the experiences people have and with that more women can get what they need to succeed. This is a long-term solution and I’m excited for continuing this conversation going forward.” – Keegan, Senior Retail Channel Marketing Manager
“I embrace equity because it’s the right thing. But more than this, because without it there is no way we would be able to achieve our full potential.” – Aaron, VP Finance
“To me, #EmbracingEquity means to accept everyone’s differences, uniqueness, and backgrounds; the very essence that makes us each who we are.” – Deb, Executive Assistant
“Change won’t happen unless we make it happen. I embrace equity because well it’s so clearly and fundamentally the right thing to do.” – Jared, VP Legal
“Embracing Equity means recognizing and supporting women across the globe, regardless of their background. We come together to empower one another, celebrate our achievements, and continue to build workplaces where ALL women can thrive.” – Taylor, People Experience Program Manager
“I reaffirm my commitment to raise my voice to help others who need support to be heard, to enable them to succeed in their career and to lead. When we make room for diverse voices – we enrich the social fabric and through this, deepen our own perspectives.” – Natalia, Software Sales
“Gender equality is not just an issue for women to solve, it takes men and allies to lean in and truly remove those barriers. The more we can speak out, the more we can stand up and the more stories we can share the greater chance we have to truly inspire action. We can help create a more equitable world for everyone.” – Mike, Director of Global Transformation
“Humanity is diverse: we’re all unique individuals with our own passions, strengths and weaknesses. Equity is taking that uniqueness into account, so everyone has the resources and opportunities they need to succeed.” – Elodie, Security Researcher
Join McAfee and millions of others around the world in celebrating International Women’s Day by sharing how you’ll #EmbraceEquity.

SANS Institute has launched the SANS Cloud Diversity Academy (SCDA) in partnership with Google, to help provide training and certifications to women, ethnic minorities, Indigenous people and other groups that are currently underrepresented in the cybersecurity sector.
A 2022 report by Cybersecurity Ventures found that women make up only 25% of the cybersecurity workforce globally, while an Aspen Digital Tech Policy report from the same year found that only 9% of cybersecurity experts are Black, about 8% are Asian, and 4% are Hispanic.
