For context, enshittification is defined as a pattern in which online products and services decline in quality. It’s usually used to refer to websites and products, but I think it can be used in a wider context.

The recent post about ISC2s issues got me to start to think about this, as well as the proliferation of cyber gurus, and the fact that basically every post secondary school in my city now has some sort of cybersecurity offering.

So, I want to see what folks think about the current state of cybersecurity education. I’m talking formal education, certs, bootcamps, etc. Is it good? Was it good, and has now become bad? Or, has it always been bad? Is it more complicated than that? Are some worse than others? How has the messaging from orgs like ISC2 affected the cyber education landscape?

Really interested to hear other folks opinions on this.
