In a rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape, organizations are urged to adapt to new trends and technologies to protect their digital environments effectively, as highlighted by Joey Stanford, VP of Data Protection and Compliance at Platform.sh.

The rise of Zero Trust security models emphasizes continuous verification, while the growing skills gap in cybersecurity professionals presents a challenge that organizations must address through investment in training. Balancing the benefits and risks associated with AI will be critical for strengthening cybersecurity strategies, requiring a proactive and strategic approach to harness its potential without compromising foundational security principles.
