Securing the Future: prioritising effective Cybersecurity

As firms are increasingly relying on technology to store and automate their data, the IT and cybersecurity sector has seen unprecedented growth. This surge is driving a high demand for skilled professionals in all IT-related roles. This business need is seen across various engineering industries, and leading staffing agencies, including TRS Staffing Solutions, are actively searching for high-quality candidates to recruit for roles across the globe.

Critical infrastructure at risk

The threat landscape for critical infrastructure is evolving rapidly. Operational Technology (OT) systems, which manage and control industrial processes in sectors like power generation, are now prime targets for cybercriminals. 

For example, the power generation industry, including both traditional and renewable energy sources like solar and wind farms, is highly vulnerable. The increasing reliance on connected technologies like SCADA systems and IoT devices for automation and remote control introduces new security challenges. 

Investing in people and technology

There are many resources for companies seeking to improve their cybersecurity posture, but the best security practices often come down to a combination of training, awareness, and advanced technology. 

With a global demand for IT positions, ensuring companies select the perfect candidate is integral to the firm. Firms are investing in and utilising big data to accurately determine successful processes in their business. The collection of assets that IT organizations manage, therefore, is ever-increasing. The scale of this technological advancement needs protection to secure data, and IT support has never been in more need, considering the big data that many companies rely on.
