The Future of Things “Cyber”

A HUMAN CAPITAL CRISIS IN CYBERSECURITY

Lee Holcomb is vice president of strategic initiatives and cyber operations at Lockheed Martin Information Systems and Global Solutions. In the calculus of cybersecurity, people often focus on the exponential growth of the information infrastructure that represents both the asset that must be defended and the vehicle by which it is attacked. That view is justified and necessary, but there’s another variable in the cyber defense equation that must be given equal if not greater weight, and that’s people. Government and industry IT organizations have a pressing need for highly intelligent and well-trained IT professionals to design and implement cybersecurity strategies, as documented by the Center for Strategic and International Studies’ (CSIS) Commission on Cybersecurity for the 44th Presidency in its November 2010 study, “A Human Capital Crisis in Cybersecurity.”
