Should you get a PhD in Cybersecurity?
In this episode of CISO Tradecraft, G. Mark Hardy sits down with Dr. Char Sample at the COSAC security conference in Ireland to unpack what it REALLY takes to earn a doctorate in cybersecurity.
From her early work on the Gauntlet firewall to cybersecurity research at the Army Research Lab, INL, and Marshall University, Dr. Sample shares hard-earned lessons on research, funding, doctoral programs, and surviving the PhD journey.
They also explore:
- Why a PhD can matter for cybersecurity research funding
- What makes a strong cybersecurity research problem
- How long a doctorate can take
- Research methods, proposals, and defending your work
- Remote vs. residency programs
- AI, hallucinated citations, and research reproducibility
- Why cybersecurity needs more focus on building securely, not just breaking things
If you're considering an advanced degree or want to understand where cybersecurity research is headed, this episode is for you.
