What are a number of the prime safety developments firms ought to pay attention to in 2023?
I feel the large problem we see CISOs and CSOs going by means of is a scarcity of expertise. It is vitally tough to rent individuals and much more tough to retain individuals. The abilities hole within the safety business is getting wider. The variety of individuals versus the variety of jobs, this hole is consistently rising.
The proximate reply and the sample we see is that an increasing number of automation will dominate the market, lowering or making individuals both extra environment friendly or typically lowering the necessity to rent safety expertise. Subsequently, whereas old-world safety merchandise had been solely evaluated by the performance of what they do, new-age safety applied sciences might be evaluated by how a lot automation can occur, as an alternative of the individuals who know-how runs.
