Nominees will be judged based upon the leadership they have exhibited in the security industry and at their companies, and the ways they have given back to the women's business community by mentoring or supporting other women in the security market. The WSC Founding Committee and select WSC members will spearhead the review process. Nominations will close at midnight on January 6, 2012, and winners will be notified in February 2012.

"WSC provides opportunities for networking and relationship-building that can propel women to greater heights in their careers," said Rhianna Daniels, Managing Director, CompassPR, and a WSC Founding Committee member. "The WSC Women of the Year awards programme spotlights the outstanding women in the security industry who are demonstrated leaders in the field and those who are emerging as the future of the industry."
