Why A Cybersecurity Degree Is Right for You

It’s been estimated that cybercrime could cost the world $10.5 trillion by 2025 and have the power to economically cripple – and potentially hold for ransom – an organization, a state, or even a country.1 How? Cyber terrorists typically target data, the information business leaders use to make decisions based on facts, statistics, and trends. Add to that the threat of the dark web – potentially 5,000X larger than the surface web – and it’s immediately clear why the demand for highly trained cybersecurity professionals is at an all-time high throughout the public and private sectors.

What You Could Do & the Financial Rewards

One of the other biggest battles being fought in cybersecurity is for cybertalent – so much so that there’s a zero-percent unemployment rate in cybersecurity.1 Employers typically take 21 percent longer to fill cybersecurity positions5 and, when they do, usually are more-than-willing to pay top dollar for those with the skillset to protect any public- or private-sector entity from current and emerging cyberthreats.
