Resource Augmentation

Increase your Cyber Capacity

The demand for skills cyber security practitioners is only increasing, as stated in the Australian 2030 Cyber Security Strategy.   Increasing cybercrime has pushed in-house IT teams to their capacity. Recruitment challenges persist, while training current staff often fails to keep pace with the needs of the business and reduces the ability to take advantage of new and emerging technologies. This has led to a global shortage of highly skilled technical experts. Some companies try to fill these vacancies with offshore resources, which tends to result in new security concerns and impacts on productivity due to timezone differences and communication difficulties.
