CYBERSKILLS2WORK


THE NATIONAL CYBERSECURITY WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM


FREE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT.

ARMING OUR NATION WITH CYBERSECURITY SKILLS TO SAFEGUARD AMERICA’S CYBERSPACE.


CYBERSECURITY TODAY: A CALL TO ACTION

CyberSkills2Work supporters hear the nation’s call for more cybersecurity in
today’s ever-evolving cyberage. Cyberspace is continually advancing with more
sophisticated ways to conduct business, socialize, and shop online. As it
evolves, so does cybercrime. Cybersecurity analysts emphasize the need to take
action on cybercriminals and develop a solid cyberdefense against computer
crimes. Having skilled cybersecurity professionals at the frontline of
cyberdefense helps protect networks, devices, and data from unlawful internet
activity. According to CyberSeek, the U.S. has a shortfall of about 572,392
cybersecurity professionals. More skilled professionals are needed to tackle the
nation’s top cybersecurity challenges:

The annual global cost of cybercrime damages is about $8 trillion and is
expected to increase to $10.5 trillion by 2025. In 2020, reported financial
losses from cybercrime in the U.S. cost over $4.1 billion, a 69% increase from
2019.
