The rapid shift to remote work in 2020 has led to a shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals in the UAE.
But lucrative opportunities await those willing to take on larger roles, a new salary guide shows. The speed of digital transformation in the past 12 months is much more than the whole previous five years, and it s still accelerating, Tarek Kuzbari, regional director for Boston-based security company Cybereason, told
The National.
This digital boom has opened opportunities for criminals to continue using age-old tactics, such as ransomware, malware and email fraud, Mr Kuzbari said.
This has led to a run on demand for cybersecurity architects, managers and engineers to battle these threats.
