There Has Never Been A Better Time To Start An In-Demand Career In Cybersecurity

Everyday 5.9 million data records are stolen. According to the U.S. Government, cyber attacks cost the global economy nearly $600 billion every year. And Global cybercrime cost businesses over $2 trillion in 2019 alone, with estimations of that

number skyrocketing to $6 trillion by 2021, says Cybersecurity Ventures.

Cybersecurity Breaches Are On The Rise

62% of large businesses have experienced cyber attacks in the past 36 months:

With Cybersecurity being one of the fastest-growing industries in the world, highly- trained cybertalent candidates are more sought-after than ever before:

• 500,000 unfilled Cybersecurity jobs in the US (Bureau Of Labor Statistics)• 1 Million+ unfilled Cybersecurity jobs globally (Bureau Of Labor Statistics)• 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs forecasted to be unfilled by 2021 (Cybercrime Magazine)• 350% growth in open cybersecurity positions from 2013 to 2021 (Cybercrime Magazine)• 100% of Fortune 500 and Global 2000 surveyed will have cybersecurity talent on staff by 2021

(Cybersecurity Ventures)• 74% of companies surveyed reported a cybersecurity talent shortage (Forbes HR Council)• 0% unemployment rate in cybersecurity since 2011 (Monster.com)

Cybersecurity Compensation

Entry-level annual salary:

$50-80,000 (Bureau Of Labor Statistics)

Average annual salary:

$98,353 and up (Bureau Of Labor Statistics)

• Capital One - 100 million Americans + 6 million Canadians data records hacked

• Yahoo! - 3 billion users affected during a hack• Equifax - Data breach exposed personal informa-

tion of 147 million people

• Marriott Hotels - 500 Million records stolen• Facebook - 540 Million records affected during

security breach• Uber - 57 million riders and drivers information

stolen by hackers

Every company that experiences a security breach may also face costly fines and potential regulatory sanctions. One of the largest fines ever paid due to avoidable system vulnerabilities, leading to a security breach was $700 million, paid by Equifax.This is why organizations today would much rather invest in top Cybersecurity talent to failsafe against any future security breaches.
