Addressing The Cyber Skills Gap - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

A maturing information security field and more sophisticated cyber-attack capabilities demands skilled information security professionals who are increasingly scarce. Cybercriminals are increasing in numbers and deepening their skillsets. The ‘good guys’ are struggling to keep pace. Where will these resources and skillsets come from? Organizations need to build sustainable recruiting practices as well as develop and retain the talent they already have to boost the organization’s cyber resilience. Businesses must prepare to build information security capabilities across the organization and position the executive team to recognize and retain talent, both those who have come up through the ranks and newer employees who have worked in a digital environment and business roles. Moving forward, there will be a need to be more aggressive about getting the skill sets that the organization needs. While the industry continues to attract the right level of interest, as a whole, the industry must realize that there is a skills gap problem that needs to be resolved.
