Palo Alto Networks Inc. conducted a recent survey that studied about 1,300 c-level executives globally across various industries and organizations. The survey tracks the latest trends and themes in cybersecurity, including the growing need for automation.The lack of skills in the cybersecurity industry is a genuine and challenging problem.
