An introduction or overview of the cybersecurity workforce issues which impact State governments.
Write a three- to four-page research report that includes a summary of your research, findings,
and recommendations. At a minimum, your paper must include the following:
1. An introduction or overview of the cybersecurity workforce issues which impact State governments.
This overview should address the political, economic, socio-cultural (including education), and
technological factors that contribute to the perceived lack of qualified cybersecurity workers. This
introduction should be suitable for an executive audience.
2. A separate section that addresses five specific reasons why states have difficulty hiring enough
trained and qualified cybersecurity workers for positions in state agencies and offices.
3. A separate section that addresses five specific “non-cybersecurity” reasons why a workforce
shortage affecting state governments may currently exist. Consider and discuss whether the
workforce shortage arises out of state budget problems rather than training and education or salary.
4. A recommendations section which identifies and discusses at least five training, education,
marketing, or hiring actions that state governments could take to attract cybersecurity talent and
reduce or alleviate a cybersecurity workforce shortage for trained and qualified cybersecurity
personnel. These recommendations should include several alternative practices which deemphasize
salary.
