A study conducted by ISC2 on Worldwide Cybersecurity Workforce highlighted that the need for additional cybersecurity professionals in the Asia Pacific region is the highest globally. With a rapidly evolving business economy, we will require close to 2.6 million additional cybersecurity experts shortly. These startling statistics expose the dire shortage of competent candidates. The only viable solution for organizations is to upskill their workforce in their current cybersecurity skills, says Apratim Purakayastha, Chief Technology Officer, Skillsoft. He talks in detail about the cybersecurity skills that businesses are looking for and the skills that a cybersecurity professional must acquire to be at the top of one’s game.
How rewarding is the career of a cyber security professional compared to other tech skills? Is there any prerequisite?
Since the current business environment is continuously working towards a total digital transformation, accompanying cybersecurity needs also expand to keep all digital infrastructure secure. Cybersecurity is a gratifying and future-proof career right now and will continue to stay that way as security and privacy will always be key aspects of new technological innovations.
