Inside Intel, part 2: The future IT security workforce

What will the information security department of the future look like?

The future workforce will look somewhat different than the current workforce, according to Alan Ross, senior principal engineer at Intel.

IT security functions will likely change because computing itself is changing so much--and Intel is at work preparing for the new security landscape.

"Our compute models have evolved along with our users' expectations; we are no longer in the compute paradigms that [built] the environment we have today--or a few years ago," Ross says. "Cloud computing, consumerization, BYOD [bring your own device], application development and transparency of information have put us at the point where we need to shift the focus of our IT strategy and architecture."
