SEC Faces Tough Competition for Cybersecurity Talent – CIO Journal. – WSJ

By Securities Docket on September 28, 2017, 7:38 am

The Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday announced plans to ramp up cybersecurity, following revelations earlier this month that hackers had accessed data for illegal trades.

SEC Chairman Jay Clayton told a Senate committee this week the efforts will include hiring more cybersecurity talent, saying “single actors dwarf the amount that we have available to spend in this area.”

As the Wall Street Journal reports, finding and recruiting these new workers won’t be easy.

“There’s a talent shortage and it’s even more emphasized at the federal level,” Rick Holgate, a research director at Gartner Inc., told CIO Journal.
