It had to happen. Cybersecurity, data safety, hacking, unauthorized access and informational integrity at the desk, in your lap, and in the cloud have all combined to create a new career path.

As the author of The Global Futurist Blog, I say this with confidence; and the opportunity is NOW. The market for this skill set will be growing steadily for the foreseable future.
