Ever thought about providing input that will shape a possible future in federal data collection on the U.S. cybersecurity workforce? The Cybersecurity Workforce Data Initiative (CWDI), mandated by the CHIPS និងច្បាប់វិទ្យាសាស្ត្រឆ្នាំ 2022 and led by the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES) within the National Science Foundation (NSF), is examining the viability of generating nationwide assessments regarding the U.S. cybersecurity workforce.

CWDI is hosting three virtual workshops in 2024 where individuals can contribute insights that will influence the potential design of a future federal data collection initiative on the U.S. cybersecurity workforce.

Taking place in May and June 2024, these workshops will address three broad themes:

• Defining the Cybersecurity Workforce
• Understanding the Knowledge Gaps: What Do We Need to Learn about the Cybersecurity Workforce?
• Aligning the Supply and Demand of Cybersecurity Professionals

Workshop 1 will help inform who will be counted in potential future national statistics describing the U.S. cybersecurity workforce. Workshop 2 will focus on the types of data CWDI has identified as missing and what information is most needed. The final workshop will explore important concepts to include in a future cybersecurity workforce study such as supply-demand mismatch challenges.
