If the goal is to fill a role and keep it filled, we may be missing the point of hiring and retaining top talent.

More than ever, investing in the human element of cybersecurity is paramount. How we staff and maintain our cyber teams will determine the success of the individuals, the team, and the program.

In today's conversation, we connect with two authors, Leeza Garber and Scott Olson, to talk about this topic in-depth, as we explore the catalyst behind the writing of their book, Can. Trust. Will. Hiring for the Human Element in the New Age of Cybersecurity.

About the Book
Cyberthreats evolve at a staggering pace, and effective cybersecurity operations depend on successful teams. Unfortunately, statistics continue to illustrate that employers are not finding the people they need.

The Can. Trust. Will. system guides the C-Suite, HR professionals and talent acquisition to build unbeatable cybersecurity teams through advanced hiring processes and focused on-boarding programs. Additionally, this book details how successful cybersecurity ecosystems are best built and sustained, with expert analysis from high-level government officials, Fortune 500 CSOs and CISOs, risk managers, and even a few techies.

Those already in the field (and newbies) will glean invaluable knowledge about how to find their most effective position within a cybersecurity ecosystem. In a tech-driven environment, cybersecurity is fundamentally a human problem: and the first step is to hire for the human element.

Are you looking to fill roles? Or are you looking for people? This nuanced difference can make all the difference.

Listen in.
