Retaining and developing a technically adept and resilient cyber workforce is a primary objective for military leadership. Yet, balancing specialized technical roles with required leadership rotations poses ongoing challenges, especially within the Coast Guard and Army Reserve.
On December 12th, join Jeremiah Roe and guest John Felker, President of Morse Alpha Associates and former Coast Guard officer, for a webinar on strategies for building a resilient cybersecurity workforce in the military
We’ll explore critical issues facing military cyber teams and discuss solutions for retaining cyber talent, developing leadership skills, and supporting military operations with realistic training exercises.
In this session, we’ll cover:
