As we celebrate International Women’s Day today, we take the opportunity to reflect on the role of women in security.

Security is an industry in which women have been traditionally under-represented. As security has evolved, it’s also become an increasingly attractive career option for women. This reflects changes in how security is conducted, an evolving focus on conflict management and de-escalation, and a nod to the specific qualities women bring to contemporary security roles.

Being naturally empathetic and observant women can think critically and outside the box and tend to be quite creative in their approach to situations and are very good at proposing alternative ways to overcoming challenges.
