Recognizing the intrinsic value of a strong and capable cybersecurity team, PacketLabs has been proactive in navigating the imminent skills shortage that plagues the industry.
They embarked on a meticulous search for an industry-recognized course and certification that would serve as a trusted and reliable hiring benchmark, ensuring a team of highly qualified practitioners equipped with the skills necessary to face the evolving cybersecurity landscape with confidence.
