Why We Have an Increasing Cybersecurity Skills Gap

Organizations need a reliable pipeline of trained cybersecurity professionals to combat cyberattacks, replace team members who leave, and augment the team when new budget dollars allow. Unfortunately, today, the number of cybersecurity pros needed far exceeds the number available for many reasons.

It's Expensive

Many high schools, colleges, and universities would love to add cybersecurity programs to their curriculum. However, the cost of tools required to offer such programs and the instructor’s salary is more than they can manage.

Time Is Not on Our Side

Cybersecurity evolves fast. Attackers can easily defeat tools and techniques that were cutting-edge and effective 18 months ago. To keep pace, instructors should continually update their curriculum. Unfortunately, they simply do not have time to do so.

It Takes a Village

Even if the educational institution acquires the tools and appropriate curriculum needed to train students effectively, they still need ongoing support from cybersecurity vendors, many of which place low priority on their needs.

How the Stellar Cyber University Program Takes the Complexity Out of Training Students
