RAND Corporation, Hackers Wanted: An Examination of the Cybersecurity Labor Market (June 24, 2014) (full-text).

Overview[]

RAND examined the current status of the labor market for cybersecurity professionals — with an emphasis on their being employed to defend the United States. This effort was in three parts: first, a review of the literature; second, interviews with managers and educators of cybersecurity professionals, supplemented by reportage; and third, an examination of the economic literature about labor markets. RAND also disaggregated the broad definition of "cybersecurity professionals" to unearth skills differentiation as relevant to this study.
