Every Professional — Developer, Data Scientist, Designer — Needs To Know Cybersecurity

By 2030, every professional — developer, data scientist, designer — will need to ensure security into their everyday workflows, writes Henry J. Schumacher, President of the European Innovation, Technology and Science Center Foundation (EITSC) in the Philippines, in a BusinessMirror article.

Let’s face it: as our lives and work move increasingly online, security becomes everyone’s job, Schumacher observes. Contrary to what you might think, most breaches don’t come from ultra-sophisticated attacks. They come from weak passwords and security lapses such as MFA fatigue (yep, that’s a real thing).

AI brings new risks, including deepfake impersonation and model leaking, and understanding these vectors is no longer optional.

As the world hurtles towards 2030, Schumacher looks at the future-proof tech skills you should start learning now, which, in addition to cybersecurity, includes algorithmic thinking, data fluency, human-centered design, and the big one — AI collaboration.
