With U.S. unemployment still over 11 percent, there are literally millions of Americans looking for work. Of course, that number is considerably smaller when you look at the pool of trained cybersecurity professionals.

And the key there is finding trained professionals. Because while cybersecurity hiring is booming, with new employment up over 7 percent in May(Opens in a new window), companies are still having an extremely tough time finding qualified candidates. In fact, 86 percent of cybersecurity job openings attracted under 10 applicants each, just because workers don’t have the right skill set.

So the conclusion is clear -- if you want to work as a cybersecurity expert, get trained now. Instruction like The CompTIA Security Infrastructure Expert Bundle ($39.99, over 90 percent off) is a perfect means of landing the skills needed to get working fast in this rapidly expanding field.

As added incentive, this package includes training compiled by CompTIA, the world’s most recognized IT certification body. Once you’ve completed these four courses, you’ll be ready to sit for four of CompTIA’s most important exams and earn certifications that earn you instant credibility with hiring managers.

The CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-001) kicks things off, helping new users understand the basics of spotting, fighting and ultimately preventing cybersecurity threats with the use of all the latest security analytics and tools. Students will learn how to configure and use threat detection tools, perform data analysis, and interpret those results to spot vulnerabilities and threats to their organization.

With the CompTIA Security+ (SY0-501) course, students delve deeper into IT security knowledge and skills, including how to provide the correct levels of protection to system information, apps and infrastructure, while also maintaining critical system access guidelines for each individual user.

While much of IT security training is geared toward system management, the CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-003) course centers on what practitioners need, not managers, to implement key cybersecurity policies and frameworks.

Finally, the CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-001) course truly tests a student’s learning, requiring hands-on demonstration of the abilities and knowledge needed to identify and defend against penetration attacks across all environments, from traditional desktops and servers to mobile devices and even the cloud.
