In the narrative that accompanied a group of photos posted on Facebook, the Office of the Prime Minister noted that with “deep Bahamian roots as the daughter of the late beloved Dr. Judson Eneas,” Mrs. Eneas-Walden “brings impressive expertise to the world of cybersecurity and public service.”
“As The Bahamas establishes itself as a tech hub, particularly in digital assets and cryptocurrency, in a world increasingly reliant on digital security, we encourage our people to explore the vast opportunities in cybersecurity,” the post added. “This field safeguards the future of digital innovation. Acting Director Walden is a testament to what’s possible.”
