The fact is that cyber criminals pose a risk to everyone—and every type of organisation needs qualified staff with the skills and experience to mitigate against this risk.
The problem is that cybersecurity professionals—who combine broad technical skills with specific security expertise and an understanding of business risk—are hard to find.
For instance, Cisco estimates that there are currently one million unfilled cybersecurity jobs worldwide, while industry giant Symantec predicts that by 2019 the number will be 1.5 million. Little wonder that the word “crisis” appears so often in articles on cybersecurity hiring, or that professionals in the field — finding themselves in such high demand—are able to command such high salaries (extracts from – http://blog.indeed.com/2017/01/17/cybersecurity-skills-gap-report/)
