Over 40% of companies globally are struggling to fill critical cybersecurity roles, particularly in information security research and malware analysis, as highlighted by a recent report from Kaspersky. This shortage is particularly acute in Europe, Russia and Latin America.
Additionally, security operations center (SOC) and security assessment and network security roles are understaffed, with figures around 35% and 33%, respectively.
The scarcity of SOC experts is particularly evident in the Asia-Pacific region, while the shortage of security assessment and network security analysts is mainly observed in the Middle East, Turkey and Africa. Despite this, threat intelligence remains in high demand, with only 32% of vacancies reported.
