EXCLUSIVE Q&A – White House National Cyber Director Harry Coker, Jr. warned Sunday of a nationwide shortage in cybersecurity talent, issuing a plea for help in filling nearly 500,000 open positions in a critical field.
“The workforce is a significant challenge,” Coker told The Cipher Brief’s 2024 Threat Conference. “We have nearly 500,000 open cyber jobs and it’s not because we don’t have more than 500,000 talented people. We have the talent, so we can get there and we need to get there.”
