New Research Highlights Security Skills Shortage

A recent cyber security article reports that 55% of enterprise organizations plan to hire additional security pros this year. However, the author writes, “83% of enterprises claim that it is ‘extremely difficult’ or ‘somewhat difficult’ to recruit and/or hire security professionals in the current market.”

Contributing to this are three trends: a shortage of critical skills, time management and the complexity of security tools.

“If this isn’t scary, nothing is. I really, really don’t understand why this situation is not getting more attention in Washington, Silicon Valley or leading Computer Science-focused Universities,” wrote the author.
