Career Information

The demand for cybersecurity professionals continues to rise as organizations face increasing threats from cyberattacks. As the cyber threat landscape evolves, professionals must stay up to date with emerging technologies and security protocols. The field offers a range of opportunities, from technical roles to leadership positions, and is expected to grow as the need for robust digital protection intensifies across industries.

The National Initiative for Cybersecurity Careers and Studies (NICCS) (https://niccs.cisa.gov/) serves as a comprehensive resource for cybersecurity training, career development, and educational opportunities.

It's a great site for seeing what the government expects of individuals working professionally. You could see job listings with their salary listed right beside them, see hotspots of positions by state, and see what requirements are common with titles. In addition, there's a lot of resources for further development and pathing suggestions for your discipline. A bit dry though.
