Having an effective cyber workforce is a national security and economic priority. This is a team sport and glad to see the White House pushing for a team-based approach

It is only together that we will continue to address cyber workforce demands, build long-term workforce capacity, and position all Americans to benefit from the enormous potential of our interconnected future. This #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth join our call to action!

According to @simonepetrella, "There are currently about 460,000 open jobs in cybersecurity and waiting to get more talent into the field isn’t going to make a dent in this need." Read more about the labor shortage in this growing sector:

Great chatting with @SusanCaminiti from @CNBC about the cybersecurity workforce shortage. We aren’t going to solve it waiting for new talent to fill the pipeline cnbc.com/2021/08/25/what-cyb…

Love this (if it wasn’t so bitingly true). Employers need to be more serious about what skills they actually need to do the work. Those that do the hard work up front are rewarded
23 Nov 2020
There is definitely a skills shortage! What can we do to help combat that?
Let's hear from our advisory board member @simonepetrella: bit.ly/3jK00lg

I meant every word but don’t go getting too big of a head about it @HankThomasDC !!
14 Oct 2020
We asked @simonepetrella why she joined our advisory board, and her answer did not disappoint!
Not only do she and @HankThomasDC go way way back, but she saw her own experiences reflected in the mission of our company.

Not every job is a cybersecurity job...but MOST jobs are now cyber enabled ones. What roles do you rely on the most for ensuring your networks and business operations are robust and secure? darkreading.com/careers-and-…

It already costs a lot for #cyber talent...and it’s not working. How about looking at some staff already in your company that might be successful in your workforce?

It should be no surprise that hiring the right people can make or break any business. That's even more true for a #startup. I talk all the time about the importance of cybersecurity talent...the truth is that the right talent matters everywhere h/t blog.stage2.capital/the-3-st…
