Security analysts: Industry has not solved the talent gap or provided clear career paths
2020-07-31 18:11

A small study found that many cybersecurity professionals are only somewhat confident in their CISOs and never get enough training time, but they like their jobs, mostly.

Enterprise Strategic Group and the International Systems Security Association released its fourth annual cooperative research report The Life and Times of Cybersecurity Professionals 2020.

In this year's survey, the two organizations asked respondents to grade how well individual companies and the industry as a whole is doing to keep up with cybersecurity challenges.

This suggests a disconnect between business, IT, and security teams, or a lack of cybersecurity knowledge at the board level.

68% of respondents said that cybersecurity technology and service vendors should be doing somewhat or a lot more to address cybersecurity challenges.
