Cybersecurity Hiring Is Not Broken—Your Job Descriptions Are
The cybersecurity #talentgap isn't just about finding people—it's about understanding who you have and what you actually need.
At #BlackHat2025, Deidre Diamond (CEO of #CyberSN) and Carraig Stanwyck (CEO of 3 Tree Tech) reveal why outdated job descriptions and static spreadsheets are sabotaging your security team's success.
The hidden problems killing your team effectiveness:
• Leaders manage complex teams with tools that can't capture real-time role changes or skill utilization
• Employees burn out doing work outside their job descriptions
• Strategic plans and budgets are built on incomplete or inaccurate information • Generic job postings create the "square peg, round hole" hiring problem
• Retention suffers when skills and roles don't align
CyberSN's workforce risk management platform changes the game by providing:
• Dynamic capability mapping—see how each capability is staffed and identify gaps
• Role realignment insights to match employees with work that fits their strengths
• Accurate job descriptions based on actual needs, not outdated templates
• Employee engagement data for better career planning and retention
• Data-backed insights that strengthen budget requests
The #business impact?
Improved retention, stronger budgets, reduced burnout, and teams that can proactively adapt to changing priorities. When you truly understand your #workforce, you can transform cybersecurity from a reactive function into a strategic force.
