A TRANSFERABLE
SKILLSET

As the world increasingly ramps up its defensive measures against cyber threats, it’s critical to the fabric of any modern-day business that the next generation of talent is educated on the transferable skills that could land them a career in the cyber world.

Cyber Security keeps on evolving, just as the rest of the tech world does. This means, new roles are always emerging, and old roles are evolving to accommodate a world that inhabits a consistent turnover of new skillsets. A great cyber security professional realises that now more than ever data breaches show no sign of slowing down therefore, the learning never stops.

our top 3 cyber career myths

  • You have to have cybersecurity qualification to explore a cyber career.
  • Your existing skills won’t be useful.
  • Big technology companies offer the best jobs.
  • As cyber-attacks are becoming a lot more creative, hackers are becoming more business-like in their approach. This means the industry is more aware of how having the same types of talent within it can stagnate its success. There are a significant number of qualifications that are globally recognised but not directly correlated with Cyber Security.
  • Because of the increasing skills gap within cyber security, the industry is now having a more in-depth look at different avenues of talent. Companies are now taking candidates who may not have a security background but have a passion for the sector a lot more seriously. After all, you can learn technique, but not character.
