Vocal Lanterns: A Collection of Voices to Unite, Inspire, and Create Brighter Pathways for Women in Security

by Arian Avila, Jennifer Walters, Lauren Bean Buitta (Foreword)

Lanterns guide us when the path blurs and remind us we are never alone. Vocal Lanterns gathers voices across the security field to share candid stories, practical advice, and hard-won lessons, illuminating the path forward for women in the security industry. You'll hear from women protecting CEOs, blocking cyber threats, guarding corporate assets, and launching bold security start-ups, along with allies who have taken the torch to light the way for new voices. Proceeds from this book support Girl Security, a nonprofit organization that prepares the next generation of women in security through mentorship, training, and career opportunities.

A refreshing, well-crafted anthology filled with stories that resonate and actionable advice. I appreciate the candor and authenticity of the contributors. The format is accessible, and the insights are relevant across industries, not just security.
