Cybersecurity Competences – Research, Development and Innovation Perspective
Antti Pelkonen, Reijo M. Savola, Jarno Salonen · Engineering & Technology Reference · 2012
Globally cybersecurity is a rapidly growing and dynamic area both from the perspective of societal significance and business activity. While expertise in this area is increasingly sought after, less attention has been devoted to the actual cybersecurity competences, how the maturity of these competences can be measured at the national level and what the situation in terms of cybersecurity competences is in different countries. In this study, the authors investigate these questions by developing a framework of elements of cybersecurity competencies and presenting results from a case study of cybersecurity skills and competence base in Finland.
