Abstract

It is therefore imperative for managers to have qualified IT security professionals in order to effectively secure the network infrastructure, protect information, diagnose and manage attacks remediating damage or losses and preparing for disaster recovery to prevent future security attacks. A single cyber security breach can cost a company hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In this panel, we will discuss the range of factors that influence the development the cybersecurity workforce, the role that different stakeholders play to ensure IT security professionals are well qualified and have the necessary skills that they should have in order to perform an effective job of securing the network infrastructure of an organization (. In addition, we will share different strategies for addressing development needs of this increasingly needed cybersecurity workforce.
