Data shows that the number of cyber security jobs has been increasing steadily in the US over the last four years, with 4,500 roles advertised online in September, a 19% rise over the year, with July seeing that number exceed 5,000.
This is according to data from recruiting intelligence provider Wanted Analytics, which also finds that the highest volumes of such listings in September were in Washington DC, Baltimore, New York, Atlanta and San Francisco, in that order, with Atlanta seeing hiring demand up by 200% over the past 12 months.
Job ads tended to stay online for six weeks on average, the report finds. In areas such as those mentioned above where new demand outstrips supply, that becomes seven weeks, but in areas such as Tucson Arizona and Kileen-Fort Hood, Texas, where there is less talent available, it drops to just five.
