AI & the Resilient Workforce: Thriving in the Next Decade

 In this episode, Steve Durbin, Chief Executive of the Information Security Forum, joins Dr. Keith Morneau, Dean of Computer and Information Science at ECPI University, to explore how AI is transforming productivity and accelerating learning across cyber careers, while arguing that human judgement, communication, and critical thinking remain irreplaceable. Dr. Morneau also challenges conventional hiring wisdom, making the case that your next great security hire could be a nurse, a teacher, or an artist.

Key Takeaways:

1. AI augments, it doesn’t replace.
2. As AI absorbs routine tasks, organisations must teach junior staff to use it as a learning coach or risk losing the pipeline of future cyber leaders.
3. The best cyber hire might not have a technical CV.
