Cybersecurity Education and Training Ramping Up

There will be many more programs to come.

Here's just one example of what is out there today when it comes to cybersecurity education: "National Defense University's College of Information and Cyberspace."

See the list of what they have available today, and I'm guessing it will expand in the future. More certificate programs will be needed in cybersecurity since it is a threat that will only grow and might even dominate our technology-focused future. 

What are you doing to become smarter on the topic? Have you listed cybersecurity as a "threat" in your threat analysis documentation for your jurisdiction? Do you include cybersecurity in your disaster preparedness materials that you provide to the public?

There is much more to be done on this topic.
