“Not all high schools are promoting cybersecurity as a career option, and working in the SOC can have the knock-on effect of bringing people in who were unaware of the field before,” says Kayne McGladrey, a senior member at IEEE. Even if they don’t go on to take cyber jobs, “working in the SOC gives them exposure to some of the language and risks common in cybersecurity,” he says. “Then, if they’re working as developers, it’ll influence the direction by which they create things. They’ll at least have security in mind.”
“While the use of telehealth has surged during the COVID-19 pandemic, the data security and privacy concerns for both patients and healthcare providers have also increased, says cybersecurity strategist Kayne McGladrey”
One way to combat that involves grassroots efforts to boost the ranks. But do security teams search for qualified, seasoned experts, and do they look for specialization or the proverbial “generalist” who can cover many corners of the cyber space? It is an ongoing debate in the industry, and today, we’ve brought together two security thought leaders to provide their take. We sat down with Kayne McGladrey, Co-Founder and Spokesperson, Include Security, and Rebecca Wynn, Head of Information Security and Data Protection Officer (DPO), Senior Director, Matrix Medical Network.

Although the tracker collected detailed telemetry, the app only provided comparative reports against other people. Despite my experience, the app alarmingly claimed I’d been having terrible problems sleeping for weeks in a row.
Producing highly accurate reports without individual customization is a consistent design flaw of many cyber security solutions available today.
