Talent discovery for cyber security: An organisational perspective

Abstract

The impact of cyber threats in society has led to a joint effort between public and private sector. Some of the major claims in cyber security initiatives involve attracting talented people and leveraging required skills. Thus, talent and knowledge management play a key role in selecting and maintaining the required expertise. However, a novel approach is required to integrate talent management across organisational partnerships in the dynamic cyber security domain. This work entails viewing cyber security as an information system in order to better understand the challenges of talent discovery and managing skills within its complex environment.
