As the cybersecurity skills gap continues to impact organizations everywhere, it is more important than ever that both current and prospective security team members take advantage of training offerings to enhance their skill sets. It is also important that everyone involved in cybersecurity encourage others to find opportunity in the field. Recently, FortiGuard Labs’ Aamir Lakhani and Jonas Walker sat down to discuss their careers in threat research, the importance of training, and the lessons they have learned while working in the field of cybersecurity.
Q: How did you get into the field of cybersecurity?
Aamir - Even as a little kid, I was always interested in computers. When I was seven or eight years old, my dad got me a computer. Since I didn’t know what to do with it, I went to the library and took out books to learn about programming. I was always interested in learning why things break – that’s how I migrated into cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity is a high-growth technology area, and security skills are in demand. A poll by ISC(2), the world’s largest nonprofit membership association of certified cybersecurity professionals, found that 81% of respondents’ organizations view security as an essential function as employees are working remotely due to the coronavirus.
At the same time, there is a need to fill both technical and non-technical roles in this industry. As the demand for cybersecurity professionals continues to rise, so does the need to attract a broader, more diverse workforce into the field. Let’s take a closer look at the factors affecting the current workforce shortfall and how the industry can help solve its own problem.
