CISA, the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has awarded NPower and CyberWarrior contracts worth $2m to bring cybersecurity training to underserved communities such as the unemployed and underemployed. One of the goals of these programs is to develop cybersecurity talent from non-traditional sources to address the shortage of workers in this area. They will be looking to increase underrepresented groups in the industry such as people of color, women, military spouses and veterans from both urban and rural communities.
