There is a global shortage of nearly 4 million cybersecurity professionals
It's becoming increasingly complex for companies to defend themselves against every threat out there, especially when vulnerabilities are being released on a daily basis. This ever-changing landscape highlights the critical need for a diverse range of thoughts and skillsets within cybersecurity teams.
Importance of diversity in cybersecurity
Effectively solving cybersecurity problems requires a team that can approach challenges from different angles. Bringing together individuals with varied backgrounds and expertise allows for a more comprehensive understanding of threats and the development of more robust solutions.
The need for adaptability

This highlights the need for cyber defenders to constantly adapt and learn new skills to stay ahead of the threats.
