Closing the space-cyber workforce gap.

Despite the space sector's consistent growth and greater importance as a critical infrastructure sector, finding cybersecurity talent is still proving to be a challenge.

Host Maria Varmazis and Nick Cohen, Principal Engineer at the Aerospace Corporation, sat down to discuss the current state of space's cybersecurity workforce. The two look at how the existing workforce is not large enough to effectively cover the industry and its infrastructure and how solutions like the Aerospace Village at DEF CON 34 have been aiming to address expertise shortcomings.
