The Future of Cybersecurity Education, Today: Real-World Learning and Partnerships

April 25, 2024 Axis Communications Season 2 Episode 4

We’re facing a huge shortage in cybersecurity professionals – nationally, we’re looking at 600,000+ jobs open. So, what are we doing to close that gap and educate the next generation of cybersecurity leaders? On this episode of ‘Connect,’ we’re happy to welcome Steve Zuromski, Vice President of Information Technology & CIO at Bridgewater State University to discuss how they’re tackling this challenge head-on. 

Together, we discuss the high demand for cyber professionals in the U.S. and what Bridgewater State is doing to mitigate the problem. From their first-of-its-kind Cybersecurity Degree and state of the art Cyber Range to their Security Operations Center (SOC) and partnership with CyberTrust Massachusetts, we explore how their real-world approach is making a difference for both students and communities. We also dive into ZeroTrust, AI, and the importance of strong vulnerability management. 

Join us as we discuss cybersecurity, higher education, and most importantly – how everyone has an opportunity in cyber.
