Abstract

This chapter discusses the main trends in the demand for cyber security professionals across Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States. The analysis is based on millions of online job postings collected throughout January 2012 and June 2022. Results show that the demand for cyber security professionals outpaced the growth in aggregate demand across the rest of occupations. This chapter also points out the heterogeneity within the demand for cyber security workforce, recognising those roles most demanded on each country. Finally, as a consequence of the quick adoption of new technologies across the world, the chapter discusses the rapid change in the skills enterprises in the cyber security sector are looking for.
