The Evolution Of Cyber Security & Trends To Watch For | Razorwire Podcast

Описание: In this episode of the Razorwire Podcast, we're joined by Oliver Rochford of Securonix to have a debate on the question "What is in store for the infosec industry?" and talk about the evolution of cyber security and the trend to watch for. As Oliver said, technology had been around for a while, but the crisis accelerated adoption and scalability.

There is no doubt that the world has gone through massive changes over the past few years. We have faced pandemics, lockdowns, wars, supply chain issues, and economic crises. As the whole world moves online, large-scale innovations have been boosted. To infosec enthusiasts, this raises an interesting question: what is in store for the industry?

Security is now not just confined to technology, now we are discussing the concept of the citizen developer. We discussed how the infosec industry is witnessing a rise in the entry from different skill sets, the struggle of cyber security providers, and setting realistic expectations for the level of security that can be delivered.
