Security News > 2021 > June > Cyberattacks and ransomware are no longer burglary; they're home invasion, expert says
More than 3.5 million people worldwide are needed to play defense against cyberattacks.
TechRepublic's Karen Roby spoke with Tom Kellerman, head of cybersecurity strategy for VMware, about ransomware and cybersecurity.
I mean, you've been talking and investigating cybersecurity for many years, but the common person out there just doesn't even really know what can happen when people are hacked and what is ransomware and all of those kind of things.
Karen Roby: Tom, when we talk about the amount of cybersecurity positions that are open, the supply and demand, it's not keeping up, and do we have a pipeline strong enough of young people coming through school that can be cybersecurity experts and take on what we know is only going to be a growing problem.
Not only do we need more people interested in cybersecurity, we need governance to change.
So you need to be able to protect your condo, your unit, effectively, and you need to be wary of your neighbors.
