  • The Federal News Radio Expert Voices panel focuses on the ramping up the cyber workforce. In your opinion, why is this topic so relevant as we look toward the future?
  • Safeguarding our government's complex cyber infrastructure will require a blended workforce of well-trained contractors, military, and civilian cyber warriors.  Attracting, hiring, and developing top cyber talent is a priority for our federal government that has a direct tie to our national and economic security, and is challenge that is only made more difficulty by existing and anticipated retention difficulties in these high-demand career fields. Market-focused strategies focusing on agile and web-based recruiting and selection strategies that capitalize on federal hiring flexibilities will be key to building the front-line of U.S. cyber defense.
