Cyber Strong: Preparing the Nation’s Cyber Workforce - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

The Nation has an ever-growing need for cybersecurity professionals who can protect our networks and infrastructure from increasing cyber threats and attacks. According to a study by the Center for Cyber Safety and Education, there will be a shortage of 1.8 million information security workers by 2022. Building a skilled and agile cybersecurity workforce to fill these positions is a national challenge. To address the shortage of skilled workers, it is critical for all communities to work together to coordinate cybersecurity awareness, education, training, and workforce development efforts. Current initiatives across the Federal Government help advance the cybersecurity workforce, particularly through training and professional development. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is leading such efforts through its Cybersecurity Education and Awareness (CE&A) Branch. We will also share information about our Stop. Think. Connect.™ campaign to help promote safe online behavior. Stop. Think.
