Long thread but serious talk.

Seeing a massive problem in the security industry today. We have brand new candidates lacking "hands on" experience coming into the workforce and finding it extremely difficult to find a job. 1/10
We talk about skills shortages everywhere in cyber security - but almost 99% of the job postings I see are for already experienced individuals.

We have a skills shortage because we are not hiring new security folks into this industry. 2/10
As an example, we recently opened up two internship spots and had over 900 applicants. This is insane and impossible odds for these folks.

Salaries are out of control for minimal experience where companies are paying outrageous wages for just a few years of experience. 3/10

I wanted to clarify some complex topics regarding the Exchange / ProxyLogon discussions that happened since the dust has settled.

1. I'm concerned generally about the negativity against security researchers releasing code as I view this as taking steps back not forward.

1/10
2. I think researchers should be mindful of when a PoC drops. In the ProxyLogon event, I was against dropping early to give companies time to patch. In stating that, there should be no hindrance as to when a researcher publishes code, especially after a patch is released.

2/10
3. My biggest fear is we are moving back to where red is secretive in TTPs which does not help the industry progress forward. This occurred several years ago in this industry, and there were several years of organizations not understanding how to defend themselves.
