5 reasons cybersecurity workforce training and development is critical for your team
To attract new talent, organizations need to invest in their employee experience with training and career development options. Cybersecurity workforce training will show potential candidates that you are invested in their professional development.
Close the cyber workforce skills gap and reduce the costs of recruiting, hiring, and onboarding by promoting from within. Workforce training and development allows you to upskill and reskill your top performers to fill hard-to-hire roles.
Hiring for cybersecurity roles is challenging, so it’s crucial to retain top talent. Skills development is a good way to invest in your team and improve team productivity with engaging and hands-on exercises. This way, you can avoid team turnover and the resulting hiring costs.
Engaging, relevant and hands-on cyber workforce training and development will increase your team’s ability to detect and protect against threats before they’re exploited and adequately secure your infrastructure from breaches.
Any organization's cyber resilience ultimately stems from its team’s skills and capabilities. A skilled, prepared security team will improve your security posture, ensure you pass audits, and maintain compliance.
