“How do we help create a pipeline of future cyber leaders, but then also, that pyramid, how do we get millions more people into the discipline? And just convince them that you don’t have to be a computer scientist or an engineer to do this. All you have to be is inquisitive. I want somebody who looks at something and says, ‘well, that’s interesting. That doesn’t make sense. Let me figure out why,’ that’s the person who would make a good security person. If you are somebody that looks at something and says, ‘I don’t understand why it looks like that, but I’m going to go figure out why,’ then you’re right for this field.” — Matthew McCormack
