Upskilling existing staff could be key to narrowing the cyber skills gap, according to the CISO of the Ministry of Defence (MoD). Major Andrew McGrane says his team has been able to set up testing environments to assess staff, giving them “a safe space where they can fail" as they build their knowledge of cybersecurity.

McGrane was speaking at the Infosec Europe conference in London this week on a panel entitled The Achilles Heel of the Cybersecurity Industry - Cyber Talent Management and Focussing on the Human Deal.
