Cyber attacks are becoming more sophisticated and far-reaching in an increasingly networked world. It is therefore within every nation’s interest to develop a robust and agile cyber workforce that will be able to respond to evolving imminent threats and attacks. Cyber industry and workforce development also supports local job creation by producing higher-order analytical jobs for citizens while enhancing national cyber resilience.
