The global cybersecurity workforce gap continues to be a challenge for understaffed cybersecurity teams.

VikingCloud’s research shows a gap between the aspirational depiction of cybersecurity professionals’ gender and ethnicity based on Google Search image results versus reality, as organizations experiment with new strategies to expand recruiting targets to close the cybersecurity talent gap. The research discovered that Google Search images significantly over index vs. current industry gender and minority status benchmarks.

This white paper dives into the statistics and analytics of the research and discusses the implications for closing the cyber talent shortage.
