    Tampa, Technically Connected: Voices from CyberBay 2025
    Jan 21 2026
    What happens when you mix cybersecurity conversations with a game of Connect4? In this bonus episode of the CyberBay Podcast, producer Sarina Gandy sits down with six attendees from the CyberBay Summit 2025 for candid conversations about their work, their paths into cybersecurity, and how they see the CyberBay movement shaping Tampa Bay’s future - all while playing a (peaceful) game of Connect4. Between moves, guests share perspectives on collaboration, accessibility, and why cybersecurity is ultimately a human problem - one that’s best solved through community, education, and connection.
