Security News > 2021 > June > Cloud security skills in high demand
Cloud security is critically important for organizations across the globe as adoption of cloud infrastructure continues to grow at a rapid clip.
The shift toward the cloud is unstoppable, and inevitably, it's driving soaring demand for skilled security professionals, according to GIAC. Demand for specific cloud security skills is far outpacing the broader demand for cybersecurity skills, according to Burning Glass.
Over the next five years, the firm expects demand for these specific skill sets to grow faster than any others: Azure security, cloud security infrastructure, Google Cloud security, public cloud security, and cloud security architecture.
Job postings requiring cloud security skills remain unfilled.
The future of cloud security depends on the development of essential skills.
A broad, general understanding of the cloud is not enough to secure and defend complex cloud environments.
