Cyber Security Jobs Ramp Up For Future Cyber Attacks

The purpose of this article to alert jobs seekers to potential jobs. It is no way a promotion or endorsement of any type of cyber attack or crime. 

Military Shifts Focus  to Cyber Security Jobs And Warfare

Wall Street Journal reporter Julian Barnes  recently wrote an article titled “ Pentagon Digs In on Cyberwar Front where he talks about how the military and the rest of the federal government is building its cyber security and warfare capabilities. This build up is in response to a number of  recent cyber attacks against the government agencies and critical parts of our country’s infrastructure. It is also a response to the emerging ” Cyber Militias” springing up in countries across the world who are engaging in unsanctioned attacks on other countries. ( See article State of Cyber Warfare Threat).

Why You Should Know This Information

In this era of budget cuts and recessions, fast growing, well paying jobs are important to everyone. Many of us know someone who is unemployed or underemployed who is looking to better their career. These jobs may not be for everyone but the knowledge that they are coming is a good thing. Here is something else you should know:

After the Stuxnet Incident, a US News & World Report article reported that the ”federal government may have to hire up to 10,000 cyber security analysts and the private sector thousands more.” Couple this information with the purported $14 Billion of investment in Smart grid cyber security, the job market for cyber security will be robust for years to come.

The 6 Hottest Job Areas In Civil Engineering

Civil Engineering Will Be Hot Over the Next Few Years

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS.gov), the Civil Engineering profession is expected to grow over 25% over the next decade. Our nation’s infrastructure (energy grid, roads, bridges, water treatment systems, mass transit including airports, levees and dams) is falling apart and poses a threat to our safety and economy. Government officials, desperate to create jobs,  are focusing harder on ways to fix and upgrade the infrastructure. In this series of posts we will cover the areas of civil engineering where we see present and future growth.

Here are the Up And Coming Areas of Civil Engineering we will cover over our series of posts.

  1. Ports, Harbors & Off Shore Facilities
  2. Storm Water & flood Mitigation
  3. Dams & Levees
  4. Power Grid & Pipeline Infrastructure
  5. Transportation
  6. Drinking & Wastewater Infrastructure

Why You Will Benefit From These Posts

The main reason job seekers will benefit from reading these posts is that large scale and long term civil engineering projects tend to create additional local jobs in their “ripple effect”. For example: The metro Atlanta area is voting on a $6 billion transportation bill to alleviate its major congestion problems. Projects like these could produce  hundred or thousands of jobs in the following indusries:

  • Construction & labor Staffing
  • Construction equipment
  • Concrete/asphalt & aggregate
  • Restaurants & food stores (These people do eat lunch)
  • Banking & retail
and many more.
We will cover these details of how civil engineering projects create job growth more in depth as we go along.
