Cybersecurity Governance, Regulatory and Compliance

Cybersecurity professionals must ensure their tasks comply to IT regulatory standards that affect their daily work. For example, CompTIA CySA+ now includes a compliance and assessment domain because security analysts must understand how to help their employers comply with and maintain government regulations to avoid fines. Growing job roles such as compliance analyst demonstrate the importance of regulatory compliance.
Scalability with Ease

As scalability has matured and evolved over the years, developing for multiple board types and processor architectures from a single source code base has become very easy. Today, adding a new processor architecture is a simple two-step process.
The first step is to add the processor architecture in dpkg as shown below:

$ sudo dpkg --add-architecture ARM && apt update
Once the processor architecture is added and the package database updated, we need only add the specific compiler and utilities for the specific ARM compiler required, so adding the ARM64 architecture is a one-line command as follows:

$ sudo apt-get install binutils-aarch64-linux-gnu gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu

If you are using Eclipse or NetBeans integrated development environment (IDE), you can add these to your list of targets and compile your projects for multiple architectures at the same time.
6. More Incident Response

Incident response skills are expanding into embedded/IoT devices, cloud security environments and automation, and that will be reflected in the updated CompTIA CySA+.

For example, many SOCs are implementing automated incident response to help get through the tens of thousands of security alerts they receive each day. A security information and event management (SIEM) system, such as Splunk, can be configured with Phantom, which is a Security Orchestration and Automated Response (SOAR) device. Phantom sends a series of commands to Splunk, called playbooks, which can perform tasks, such as quarantining devices.
