6 Common Terminology Cyber Security or Cybersecurity or Cyber? We pulled active cybersecurity job recs in the region and analyzed them for commonalities. Based on that review we were able to identify 11 key Cybersecurity Domains that those jobs could be attributed to. Those domains were are used for a base line analysis and common measuring block. 1. Threat Detection 2. Threat Prevention 3. Incident 4. Compliance & Audit 5. Risk 6. IT Infrastructure 7. IT Service 8. IT Security 9. Programming 10. Database 11. Other (TBD) 6

11 Key Takeaways The region is producing more CS & CSE s at the undergrad and graduate level than the annual demand in the cybersecurity industry. Most of the courses in those CSE programs are not currently designed to teach cybersecurity specifically, but do provide a technical foundation. In order to get a more accurate handle on the demand from industry at the job specific level, additional survey work would need to be conducted. Maintaining an accurate inventory of the cybersecurity curriculum offered in the region and matching that with the growing demand will be a valuable exercise moving forward. 11
