“In Romania, according to the National Cyber Security Directorate (DNSC), we have a shortage of over 2,500 specialists. On the other hand, according to the Cybersecurity Workforce Study, around 200,000 specialists are being sought in Europe to fill the current cybersecurity staff shortage,” Andrei Avadanei said.

He believes that educating the public about cybersecurity should continue to be a priority for both public and private actors.
