As part of our series on the 2024 NICE Conference, we turn our focus to the one of the keynote speakers of the conference. This year’s conference theme “Strengthening Ecosystems: Aligning Stakeholders to Bridge the Cybersecurity Workforce Gap” highlights the collective effort to strengthen the cybersecurity landscape.
