Listen "Pick Up Music, Pick Up Technology"
Episode Synopsis
Last week, when the world experienced the largest ransomware outbreak in history, it also reminded me of our cybersecurity workforce shortage. When events like WannaCry happen, we can never have too many security heroes!
There was an idea floating around that suggested individuals with a music background might have a promising future in security. The thinking is: if you can pick up music, you can also pick up technology.
The Inside Out Security panelists – Cindy Ng, Mike Thompson, Forrest Template and Mike Buckbee – are in agreement. Their sentiments expanded to all artists and added that creative thinking along with attention to detail can go a long way.
