The Security Masterminds podcast’s first guest is KnowBe4’s SVP of Emerging Tech Insights Dr. Lydia Kostopoulos, who became interested in the cybersecurity space after experiencing 9/11 as a freshman in college. After that, she decided to pursue her educational studies in cybersecurity. 

During this podcast, Dr. Kostopoulos explores the state that we are in today, known as the fourth industrial revolution. This consists of AI, DNA editing, nano technologies, mixed media, smart sensors and quantum computing, just to name a few. 

We are at the dawn of a new infrastructure being built for things like smart cities, autonomous vehicles, etc. This new era is creating a cybersecurity skills gap given the plethora of new technologies and the rapid pace at which things are changing and developing. As long as technology changes, you need to continue to upskill.
