Crippling talent shortages threaten the future of cybersecurity, but there’s a smarter way forward. In this candid conversation, industry veterans Matt Boon and Peter Hind reveal why simply hiring more isn’t enough, and how organisations can unlock the full potential of their existing teams.

They explore the hidden root of the talent crunch: soft skills, culture, and the urgency to reskill rather than lay off. Discover why high curiosity, trust, and a collaborative mindset are the real superpowers in cybersecurity today — and how AI, automation, and the evolving threat landscape can be turned into opportunities for growth, not disaster.
