As more and more Canadians digitize their lives, they increase their risk of cyber attacks. This, in turn, has created an increased demand for cybersecurity-related jobs. This is a gap Ryerson is working to close.In this episode, Amanda Cupido sits down with the leaders of Ryerson’s Rogers Cybersecure Catalyst to talk about the program developed in partnership with SANS, a world-leading cybersecurity training and certification firm. The program aims to train individuals from various backgrounds and within underrepresented groups to fill the thousands of vacant jobs that serve to protect more Canadians online.
