Research firms are projecting a shortage of between 1 and 3 million qualified cybersecurity professionals over the next few years. For cybersecurity professionals looking for a new job, then, it’s a seller’s market. “At the very highest levels, the right person can command over $400,000,” says Paul Smith, vice president of business development at PEAK Technical Staffing. “The law of supply and demand is completely in evidence. The commercial industries are stealing people out of the NSA and CIA like crazy because corporations are having such a problem with foreign espionage. The demand for people who understand these threats has skyrocketed.”

“In high demand markets, like the Bay Area, New York or LA, the salaries for these positions range from $160k to $198k,” agrees Scott Davidson, senior vice president at Modis. Even with these salaries, companies are having a hard time filling these roles. “Information Security is one of the most challenging skill sets to recruit,” says Davidson. “Demand is high and the skills are so specialized that finding them poses a major challenge for talent acquisition professionals.”
