Additionally, those who were directly involved in information security while serving, have the some of the most comprehensive information security backgrounds available, making them the best practitioners and advisors around. Given the proclivity for information security and the skills gap, it just made sense to attempt to benefit the known unemployed/ underemployed veterans through a VA approved program to prepare them for careers in cybersecurity, with guidance, mentorship, and apprenticeship along the way. So was born the Cyber Warrior Foundation, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to creating tomorrow’s information security professionals out of today’s veterans. Show less
