Synopsis
Project management in cybersecurity involves overseeing crucial projects that enhance security and business resilience while advancing change. Integrating cyber skills into the project profession can help take both functions to the next level.
Risk management is a core responsibility of project managers. Incorporating security skills will allow them to identify and assess cyber risks more effectively. The rise in cyberattacks threatens projects across all industries. Project managers should be aware of these security threats and understand how to mitigate them.
Project managers equipped with security skills can proactively address potential vulnerabilities and protect their projects from being compromised.

Good risk management is essential for project managers, and with businesses and projects evermore dependent on tech having an understanding of cyber security is essential.
