RSA 2020: How Automation Can Help Close the Cybersecurity Skills Gap
How to help organizations close the cybersecurity skills gap is a perennial topic of conversation. Beyond getting creative in order to fill jobs and building up a talent pipeline, how can businesses use technology to help them close the gap? Automation tools, ranging from robotic process automation to more advanced forms of artificial intelligence, can make cybersecurity engineers' jobs easier and save them time by processing large amounts of data quickly and automating responses. However, as experts noted at RSA 2020, there are some things that even a machine can't yet do when it comes to IT security.
View more of our coverage from the RSA 2020 Conference and gain insight into how the conversation on cybersecurity is growing and evolving.
