The U.S. is at an inflection point in terms of cyber threats; Critical infrastructure attacks are growing more frequent and consequential, and the White House recently called the cyber talent gap of nearly 770,000 open positions a “national security challenge.” Kelly Rozumalski, SVP at Booz Allen Hamilton leading the firm’s national cyber defense business, joins BSW to discuss why upskilling and reskilling are key to closing the cyber talent gap at the federal level and how a collective defense posture across government and private sector can enable us to better secure U.S. critical infrastructure.
Kelly Rozumalski is a senior vice president leading Booz Allen’s national cyber defense business. She develops solutions that address some of the nation’s top cybersecurity challenges, including protecting critical infrastructure, safeguarding connected devices (e.g., medical devices), securing the supply chain, and defending the federal enterprise against cyber threats.
Consulting Magazine named Kelly a 2021 Woman Leader in Technology, honored for Excellence in Innovation. In addition, Kelly leads cyber talent programs to help Booz Allen attract and retain the industry’s top talent.
