Hackers attack: The reason is the lack of network security professionals

Ddos December 28, 2017 2 minutes read

In the past year, the issue of cybersecurity has become a story that various major media are competing to report on. More than 57,000 computers from more than 70 countries in the world were hacked by extortionists from the National Security Agency’s Windows operating system. Hackers use a variety of loopholes in Windows 2000 to Windows 8 to reach cybercrime. According to a recent Gallup study, cybercrime is one of the most terrible crimes in the United States.

 

One of the reasons why the rate of cybercrime has been so high is the lack of network security specialists, which exposes the company’s security issues. According to reports, a recent survey of recruitment agencies showed that “81% of people think that the demand for digital security personnel is on the rise, but only 16% think demand will be met.”

The findings are in line with the cybersecurity commission’s call for new strategies to bridge the skill gap. As Adam Thilthorpe, BCS’s External Affairs Director put it: “Governments and businesses should come to a unified strategy, and we should recruit more women, minorities and train older workers to open positions.”

This exceptional labor shortage is also an opportunity for people outside the IT world. For example, security company BT has been running a five-year online apprenticeship program that recruits Asperger with a new interview method. This may affect hiring but does not affect cognition. In fact, Aspen people are gifted in mathematics, computer science, engineering, and science.
