Announcing eLearnSecurity's Red Team Month Discount
We here at eLearnSecurity have been beating the dead horse about cyber security skills shortage for quite a while now. Why? According to CoreSecurity's 2020 Penetration Testing Report, 47 percent of businesses have not pentested their network. That means nearly half of businesses are not prepared for an attack. They don't know where their network vulnerabilities lie, and many can't find skilled cyber security professionals to help.
In fact, 63 percent of IT executives named "hiring enough skilled personnel to do the test" as their largest barrier to pentesting and network security. That's an overwhelming number of businesses who need penetration testers ASAP.

The World Needs More Penetration Testers
The industry is experiencing a real and impactful skills gap. According to Cyber Security Magazine, cyber crime will cause an estimated $6 trillion dollars in yearly damage by 2021. Unfortunately, the demand for qualified personnel that can mitigate that damage may lead to 3.5 million unfilled cyber security jobs by the end of next year as well.
What's more, the unemployment rate in the cyber security industry has remained at or near 0% for years now. Penetration testers, red team members and other security professionals enjoy job security like few other professions.
