Study: More Cyber Jobs Exist Than People to Fill Them

Demand for cybersecurity talent “significantly outstrips the supply of available workers” in every U.S. state, experts say.
U.S. employers posted 285,681 cybersecurity jobs during the 12-month period that ended in September 2017. Nationwide, more than 746,000 people work in cybersecurity jobs.
Those figures come from a new study by CyberSeek, a project maintained by the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE), a program of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in the U.S. Department of Commerce. The study was released at the recent NICE Conference & Expo in Dayton, Ohio.
