Steve Orrin, chief technology officer and senior principal engineer of Intel‘s federal arm, recently spoke to GovCon Wire for an in-depth conversation on cyber talent challenges in both the government and industry.
“The key is to help create the right environments for talented people to learn and hone their skills – in the government, industry, or academia. Over time, the workforce will begin to catch up and we’ll see what the future holds,” the Intel Federal CTO said in the Q&A session.
Orrin also shared his views on why agencies should include zero-trust in their broader cybersecurity framework.
“To establish trust and ensure rapid real-time response, agencies must build off a foundation of cybersecurity best practice and make it actionable, continuous, and validated. It’s an approach that will make a big difference in how we all move forward to combat our nation’s critical cybersecurity challenges.”
