What Does the Future Look Like?
Now, a large quantity of jobs is one thing. But is the amount shrinking or growing?
The cybersecurity growth is undeniable.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average growth rate across all occupations is 5%. For Information Security Analysts, it’s an eye-popping 32%!
The numbers are similarly good for other cyber roles. Computer and Information Systems Managers, for instance, have a projected growth rate of 11%. For both Computer Systems Analysts and Database Administrators, it’s 9% — almost double the overall average.
With factors like automation and migration, work was already changing before. Throw in a global pandemic and the need for remote employment, and the landscape becomes that much more complicated.
But cybersecurity is one industry you can count on to be there. And in uncertain times, there’s a lot to be said for that.
