In this episode I break from the norm a little bit in order to delve into the minds of security leadership. These insights come from a recent Grand Valley State University Cybersecurity Masters Graduate, Isaac Beasley.

As part Isaac's Master's project, he interviewed 10 different cybersecurity leaders in the West Michigan area about a variety of different topics. For the sake of time, I concentrated on talking to the following key data points:

Hiring, Retention, & Advancement

  • 80% reported not fully cyber staffed
  • 60% struggle with team burnout
  • 70% see diversity as a top challenge when building out a team
  • GRC, Security Architects and Cloud Security where the most in demand roles

To help me with the intricacies of this episode is a security leader that participated in the interviews but also is very familiar with them, Jim Kuiphof, Deputy Chief Information Security Officer of Corewell Health.
