My take on how a decade (or more) of using cloud services for everything has seemingly deskilled the workforce.
Just recently I found myself interviewing senior security engineers just to realize that in many cases they had absolutely no idea about how the stuff they supposedly worked with, actually worked.
This all made me wonder, is it possible that over-reliance on cloud services for everything has massively deskilled the engineering workforce? And if it is so, who is going to be the European clouds, so necessary for EU’s digital sovereignty?
I did not copy-paste the post in here because of the different writing style, but I get no benefit whatsoever from website visits.
Yeah, they are frequently just parroting things like CVE notices as highlighted by a fairly stupid scanning tool.
The security ecosystem has been long diluted because no one wants to doubt a “security” person and be wrong, and over time that has made a pretty soft context for people to get credibility as a security person.
