Cybercrime is big business, with <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/risk-and-resilience/our-insights/ransomware-prevention-how-organizations-can-fight-back" target="_blank">experts </a>estimating it will cost global organisations a staggering $265 billion by 2031 – that’s over 10 times the 2021 prediction of $20 billion. </p> <p>These figures make cyber threats like <a href="https://cybersecurityventures.com/cybercrime-damage-costs-10-trillion-by-2025/" target="_blank">Ransomware the world’s third-largest economy after the US and China</a>. They represent the greatest transfer of economic wealth in history, costing the world more than the annual damage inflicted by natural disasters and surprisingly, beat the global trade of all major illegal drugs combined in terms of profitability. </p> <h2>The urgent need for cyber security professionals </h2> <p>In its <a href="https://www.isc2.org/Research/Workforce-Study" target="_blank">2021 Cyber Security Workforce study</a>, the (ISC)² reports: “The need for more professionals in the field has never been greater, continuing to outpace demand and underscoring that career opportunities will only continue to grow.” </p> <p>We are already seeing these changes with The <a href="https://www.austcyber.com/resources/sector-competitiveness-plan-2019/chapter3" target="_blank">Australian Cyber Security Growth Network</a> recently calling for every workplace to have a cyber-literate workforce that understands cyber risks and helps keep its organisation’s data secure. </p> <p>The<a href="https://www.isc2.org/-/media/ISC2/Research/2021/ISC2-Cybersecurity-Workforce-Study-2021.ashx" target="_blank"> industry has employed</a> around 134,690 Australians in 2021 – an increase of almost 28,000 from 2019 – and demand continues to soar. </p> <p>Women in particular are being strongly encouraged to enter the cyber security sector as currently they are underrepresented in the profession. In fact, global nonprofit membership association, <a href="https://www.isc2.org/Research/Workforce-Study" target="_blank">(ISC)2</a> estimates that women in cyber security represent only 25 per cent of the global workforce. <a href="//studyonline.unsw.edu.au/blog/gender-diversity-cyber-security%C2%A0" target="_blank">More women working the field</a> can help combat staff shortages, improve information security and also bring diversity benefits to organisations. </p> <p>The cyber security industry offers a variety of roles, many of which don’t require you having technical skills. In fact, there are seven categories of cyber security functions. So, when researching <a href="//studyonline.unsw.edu.au/blog/career-in-cyber-security-australia" target="_blank">how to get into cyber security</a>, it’s important to start by discovering which career path you’re best suited for.</p> <p>Let’s take a closer look at popular <a href="//studyonline.unsw.edu.au/blog/career-in-cyber-security-australia" target="_blank">careers in cyber security</a> and the skills required.</p> <h2>How to become a cyber security analyst </h2> <p>According to the <a href="https://www.nationalskillscommission.gov.au/reports/state-australias-skills-2021-now-and-future/chapter-7-emerging-skills/emerging-and-trending-skills-australia" target="_blank">Federal Government’s National Skills Commission</a>, cyber security analysts are becoming increasingly in demand. </p> <p>As a <a href="//studyonline.unsw.edu.au/blog/high-demand-influencing-cyber-security-salary-and-opportunities" target="_blank">cyber security analyst</a>, your primary role is to prevent cyber attacks from happening and lead the recovery process if a breach occurs. Typically a mid-career role, most cyber security analysts industry experience and a bachelor’s or a master’s degree in IT or cyber security, such as the online Master of Cyber Security at UNSW. </p> <h3>What you’ll do as a cyber security analyst </h3> <p>While it depends on the size of the organisation you are working for, your daily tasks and responsibilities may include: </p> <ul> <li>security software installation and updates </li> <li>detecting unauthorised activity in networks </li> <li>testing the integrity of information systems </li> <li>managing cyber security breaches </li> <li>understanding the causes of breaches </li> <li>cyber security training for staff </li> <li>staying up to date on emerging threats and technologies </li> </ul> <h2><img alt="" style="width: 1920px; height: 1080px;" class="b-lazy" data-src="/sites/default/files/how-to-become-a-cyber-security-professional.jpg" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" /></h2> <h2>What skills are needed for cyber security careers? </h2> <p>Becoming a successful cyber security professional requires more than just technical skills. According to <a href="https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/cyber-security-subsite/files/cyber-security-strategy-2020.pdf" target="_blank">Australia’s Cyber Security Strategy 2020</a>, “human behaviour is almost always part of the problem.” </p> <p>Cyber attacks like phishing are so successful because they exploit human strengths and weaknesses. So being curious about how people think as well as understanding how computers, software and systems work in relation to security are essential to excel in this role. </p> <p>You’ll need to add the following skills to your resume to secure the top positions in Australia: </p> <h3>Technical skills for cyber security analyst positions </h3> <ul> <li>knowledge of networking configuration and management </li> <li>operating systems expertise </li> <li>cyber security response skills </li> <li>ability to install and manage defensive controls (including firewalls, endpoint protection SIEMS) </li> <li>programming skills such as Python, C/C++, Java, JavaScript, SQL, Powershell </li> <li>analysis and management of risk </li> <li>data analytics skills </li> <li>cloud computing knowledge </li> <li>ethical hacking skills </li> </ul> <h3>Soft skills for cyber security analyst positions </h3> <ul> <li>teamwork and collaboration </li> <li>problem solving </li> <li>critical thinking and logic </li> <li>interest in continuous learning and improvement </li> <li>communication </li> <li>curiosity </li> </ul> <h2>What are some other careers in cyber security I can pursue? </h2> <p>Cyber security positions are available at all organisational levels including: </p> <ul> <li>penetration testers</li> <li>compliance officers </li> <li>architects </li> <li>IT managers </li> <li>security managers </li> <li>security officers </li> <li>specialists </li> <li>chief information security officers </li> <li>directors</li> </ul> <p>Here is a brief overview of some current cyber security roles and what you’ll need to succeed in them.</p> <h3>Chief information security officer (CISO) </h3> <p>As the CISO, it is your job to oversee all of the cyber security activities and resources in your organisation. In this senior leadership position, it is also your responsibility to plan long-term strategies to strengthen cyber security. </p> <p>What you’ll need: It is critical to have high-level business management experience, strong communication skills and a broad understanding of all roles within cyber security will be required to be a successful CISO. Why? Because a key part of your role is to work with other senior leaders in the organisation to achieve optimal cyber security outcomes. This might involve: </p> <ul> <li>persuading C-suite executives to adopt a recommended cyber security approach </li> <li>providing guidance to different departments on how to comply with security policies </li> <li>Working closely with a range of business functions, for example, risk management, business continuity and disaster recover, IT and legal teams</li> <li>liaising with government policy makers and regulatory agencies </li> </ul> <p>Most CISOs have a master’s degree in cybersecurity as a minimum, to prepare them for the demanding nature of this role. </p> <h3>Cyber security engineer </h3> <p>While the cyber security analyst and security engineering roles appear similar, the key difference is that engineers design and build security architecture. In contrast, analysts monitor what the engineers have built to detect and respond to breaches. </p> <p>What you’ll need: Solid technical skills are a must-have for this job including: </p> <ul> <li>programming language knowledge including Python, C/C++, Java, JavaScript, PHP SQL, Perl, Powershell </li> <li>extensive knowledge of enterprise operating systems </li> <li>experience with cybersecurity management systems </li> <li>ethical hacking skills </li> <li>sound computer forensics understanding </li> <li>knowledge of complex network design and configuration </li> </ul> <p>Being an advanced technical role, most cyber security engineers have extensive industry experience and a bachelor’s or a master’s degree in IT or cyber security such as the online Master of Cyber Security at UNSW. </p> <h3>Cyber security specialist </h3> <p>As an entry-level role, Cyber security specialists and technicians typically work within IT teams to help safeguard data and network security. </p> <p>What you’ll need: According to <a href="https://www.aucyberexplorer.com.au/pathway.html" target="_blank">AUCyberExplorer</a>, the skills most commonly requested in cyber security specialists’ job listings include: </p> <ul> <li>cyber security engineer</li> <li>cyber security manager</li> <li>chief information security officer</li> <li>information systems </li> <li>network security </li> <li>threat analysis </li> <li>security operations </li> </ul> <p>Cyber security specialists usually hold a bachelor's or master's degree in information technology or cyber security, such as the online Master of Cyber Security at UNSW. </p> <h3>Penetration and vulnerability tester </h3> <p>Known as pen testers or "ethical hackers", it is the job of penetration and vulnerability testers to simulate cyberattacks on company IT systems. By doing so, security vulnerabilities can be discovered and addressed proactively before a malicious attack occurs. </p> <p>What you’ll need: According to AUCyberExplorer, the top five skills most commonly requested in penetration and vulnerability tester job listings include: </p> <ul> <li>Information Security </li> <li>Penetration Testing </li> <li>LINUX </li> <li>Python </li> <li>Vulnerability Assessments </li> </ul> <p>Generally, it is a mid-career role that requires several years of industry experience and either a bachelor’s or master’s degree in IT or cyber security. </p> <p>To learn more, <a href="//studyonline.unsw.edu.au/blog/career-in-cyber-security-australia" target="_blank">see our guide to a career in cybersecurity</a>. </p> <h2>Do you need a degree for cyber security positions? </h2> <p>In Australia, you’ll need at least a bachelor’s degree in programming, IT or a related field to gain employment in cyber security.
