As we celebrate our 10-year anniversary, we extend our heartfelt thanks to the cyber community of clients, candidates, partners, and everyone who works tirelessly to protect us. Our love and respect for you is enormous, and we are here, working every day to protect and support you. Here’s to the next decade of empowering cybersecurity professionals and safeguarding our digital world.
CyberSN reflects on a decade of empowering cybersecurity professionals and leaders to build their careers and develop resilient teams. Founded September 2014, CyberSN has been at the forefront of cybersecurity workforce solutions to enhance talent diversification, acquisition, development, retention; while creating operational efficiencies for maturing security practices. Powered by the CyberSN Taxonomy and Platform, CyberSN aligns cybersecurity professionals with the needs of the industry, bolstering national and organizational security.
CyberSN’s ability to retain its talent is a testament to the culture of resilience, support, and commitment that defines our company. We are especially proud to acknowledge the dedication of team members who have been with us from the very beginning and continue to shape our success today. Dawn Saez, CyberSN's first hire; Dom Glavach, our Chief Technology and Security Officer and Erik Ligda, Director of Product who created our CyberSN Taxonomy and led our platform's vision alongside our Founder, Deidre Diamond. Deborah Maggio, leads our finance and HR Operations, and Travis Monson leads our Recruiting Department. If you know our Founder then you know from day one she has led our sales and services strategy, she is a force of nature. These individuals and the amazing teammates who have joined over the years are committed to the mission, vision and values of CyberSN.
CyberSN’s mission has always been clear: to make job searching and talent matching simple. Our vision has always been to create a cyber workforce platform that empowers cybersecurity leaders to successfully hire, develop, retain, and manage both their talent and organizational capabilities. Today we live in this vision and we are committed to securing the mental health and resilience of cybersecurity teams with our workforce risk management solutions and partnerships.
Founder and CEO of CyberSN, Deidre Diamond shares, “It's a marathon, not a race. Building something that lasts requires commitment and the determination to never give up. I've occupied the fascinating role of a corporate athlete for 30 years now, and CyberSN has seen great successes over the last decade. As we celebrate our ten-year anniversary, we find ourselves stronger than ever, with a team that has incredible drive. We understand the immense pressure the cyber community is under, and we are dedicated to helping every day. This is what makes the marathon worth it.”
To achieve our mission of simplifying job searching and matching in the cybersecurity industry, we recognized the need for industry standardization, clear role definitions, and precise job matching. This led us to develop the CyberSN Taxonomy, which fosters a shared language between employers and professionals, enhancing mutual understanding and alignment. Built upon and extending the NICE Framework, our taxonomy defines cyber projects and tasks for over 45 functional roles across 10 categories: GRC, defense, product security, education, management, offense, planning, research, response, and sales.. Explore the CyberSN Cybersecurity Taxonomy.
Our taxonomy serves as the foundation for all our services and technology, enabling us to deliver unparalleled precision in job matching, talent development, and organizational planning.
In today’s evolving cybersecurity landscape, diverse attackers require diverse defenders, making it crucial to build teams with varied perspectives and experiences. Moreover, burnout is a critical risk, not only to individuals but to organizations, as it can lead to decreased performance, high turnover, and vulnerabilities. Over the past decade, we’ve collaborated with key partners to tackle these challenges and advance our shared mission of building a resilient and diverse workforce.
As we look to the future, CyberSN remains dedicated to innovation, growth, and our unwavering commitment to the cybersecurity community. Our mission continues to evolve as we integrate mental health and workforce workload management into our talent risk management solutions, ensuring that teams are not only operationally supported but also mentally resilient.
Deidre Diamond reflects on this journey: “When we have significantly decreased burnout in the cybersecurity community I will rest. We must get solutions into the hands of security leaders to drive workforce change. As we work toward standardizing a talent risk score through our platform, we aim to help organizations mitigate workforce-related risks while fostering a healthier work environment.”
