• Cyber attacks expected to cost organizations $2.1 trillion globally by 2019
• Level of threats is growing faster than we are growing our capabilities to respond
• Attacks becoming more common - Ransomware, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS), Social Engineering
• IT systems are becoming more distributed – no real borders to defend
• Attacks and breaches of public and private systems are inevitable

Disruption to Skills Needed Now and in the Future
• Cybersecurity workforce is not keeping pace with need
– U.S. cyber workforce faces a 1.8 million worker shortage by 2022
• Currently 0% unemployment rate
• Each year in the U.S. there are 128,000 openings for IS Analysts, but only 88,000 workers currently employed in those positions – a talent shortfall of 40,000 workers
• Georgia today: Total employed cybersecurity workforce = 28,368 Total cybersecurity job openings = 12,783
