Overview
ISSA/ESG’s annual research study “The Life and Times of the Cyber Security Professional “is full of valuable information, but only if you know how to use it. We will review pain-points identified by cybersecurity professionals and offer suggestions to use the data to educate the business, build a value proposition and justification for budgeting, training, and professional development time.
