Take a look at some key highlights from the event below.
New Cybersecurity Workforce Data
Data updates to CyberSeek confirm that the demand for talent continues to outpace supply despite growth in available education and training programs.
In addition to the latest workforce data, CyberSeek has incorporated updated components of the NICE Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (NICE Framework), which includes new and updated cybersecurity Work Roles, Competency Areas and Task, Knowledge, and Skill statements.
New International Skills and Workforce Framework Materials
Two new resources have been made available in support of NICE Strategic Plan Goal 4.6, "Expand international outreach to promote the NICE Framework and document approaches being used in other countries."
Following the release of NICE Framework components v.1.0.0 earlier this year, the NICE Program Office is pleased to share that the components v1.0.0 are now available in five translations.
Additionally, a list of Cybersecurity Skills and Workforce Frameworks is now available. The list includes a representative sample of cybersecurity, cyber-related, and digital literacy skill and workforce frameworks.
