Cybersecurity Experts Needed in U.S.
Very few people would make a connection between cybersecurity and U.S. immigration law. In fact, a decade ago, very few people outside of the information technology (IT) industry knew what cybersecurity was or even considered it something worth worrying about. Many of us naively believed that with the right passwords, encryption software and firewalls, our data and information would be secure.
In recent years, however, our world has become far more technologically advanced and, as a consequence, technologically dependent. Nearly every occupation and industry has developed some use for artificial intelligence, a big data platform, or Web-based application, whether it is banking, retail, pharmaceutical, medical, legal or agricultural.
Today, we are experiencing a generational shift in computing, with nearly every company, small and large, seeking to move networks, servers, data warehouses and virtualization software functions and components to a cloud-based infrastructure. This is largely because of the realization, over time, by many companies, that their "data is gold." Thus, a company's adoption of cloud-based technology has become the first priority for most Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and, thus, the use of such technology has skyrocketed. With this major shift to cloud-based computing, it's no surprise that cyber vulnerabilities within cloud technology will also increase. So in addition to migrating to the cloud in order to provide innovative services that enhance business and drive transformations, CIOs must also be cognizant of the ever-growing cybersecurity threats to such Internet-based technologies.
