UK launched cyber skills strategy

In order to answer to industry shortages, the United Kingdom has launched a new cyber skills strategy that will be supported by a newly formed independent body. The move confirms that cybersecurity will remain an important priority of the government and “central not only to our national security but also fundamental to becoming the world’s best digital economy”. The launch of the strategy was preceded by a two-year multi-sectoral consultation process and a research into cybersecurity skills gap in the country.
