In 2023, there have been so many layoffs in the technology industry that TechCrunch (https://apo-opa.info/3JozWLm) labelled it a “reckoning” in its extensive list released late April. To date, across numerous organisations that include Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Dropbox and Zoom, to name but a few, there have been nearly 169,000 layoffs. Meta is expected to lay off 10,000 roles in the next few months and Disney 7,000. And yet, in cybersecurity there are still more “jobs open than people to fill them” (https://apo-opa.info/3NGG981).The economic landscape has seen many technology companies lay off vast numbers of employees, but for cybersecurity, the picture looks very different.
According to Anna Collard, SVP Content Strategy & Evangelist at KnowBe4 AFRICA (www.KnowBe4.com), the biggest challenge facing the cybersecurity profession right now is not the sudden loss of a job, but the long-term impact of skills shortages and stress.
