Digital transformation has been the driving force in the demand for professionals with the skills to implement cutting-edge software into businesses across Germany and Europe. This is a vital step for companies to improve their productivity and workflow to ensure they remain in the black and out of the red. The German software market has had a 5.7% growth every year for the past five years providing a total of €19bn according to the European Information Technology Observatory .

Cybersecurity is an exciting, continually evolving sector within the tech industry. Many professionals see it as a digital arms race to ensure companies and individuals can stay connected through machine learning and autonomous response while keeping their information safe. So much of our daily lives is managed online, this has become particularly prevalent during the COVID-19 pandemic which saw people restricted in their movements from their home and having to go about their daily errands using the internet instead. Internet banking and online shopping are all methods many of us use consistently throughout the week. Companies of all sizes from agile start-ups to global powerhouses also rely on digitalisation and are thus also at risk of high-profile breaches and cyber security attacks which have been disrupting the global economy.

This year has seen a drastic increase in the demand for cyber security professionals, largely due to the move from professionals working in office to working from home. Companies have had to invest heavily in cyber security procedures to ensure business critical information is protected during the work from home period which is set to last longer than anyone could have anticipated.

Tech companies and professionals are facing the pressure of the necessity to make valuable hiring decisions to positively impact their business model. The new wave of technological advances has shifted the traditional management of many sectors within the tech industry, resulting in high demand for ambitious professionals to join the workforce and help to maintain results.

Cybersecurity careers in Germany are booming. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic struck this was a significant growth area. Now, with large numbers of people working from home, cybersecurity and keeping networks safe has become even more of a priority.

Digital transformation has been pushed to the top of the agenda like never before in recent months. COVID-19 has brought topics such as cloud and infrastructure and cybersecurity new relevance and this has created a shift in thinking across the world in terms of what organisations need to do to respond effectively.

Cyber security is a constantly evolving space with an ever-changing range of threats. Some of these are consistent and others ebb and flow depending on current environments and events. All businesses today, large and small, require a range of security experts in order to ensure that they are covered in all eventualities.
