Why Security:
There is compelling evidence
that neither technologies nor policies alone offer effective
security. Organizations are looking to develop a comprehensive
approach to information security, embracing both the human
and technical dimensions. The industry is in agreement that
there is a need to better train, staff, and empower those
tasked with information security.
The process:
CompTIA will build and host an industry
committee, composed of 18 - 20 organizations, including:
- Software
/ hardware organizations
- Training
and academia
- Consulting
firms
- Government
- Affiliated
associations
The benefits of
an industry supported Security exam:
- Increased availability of skilled labor
force, as academia and training begin teaching to clearly
defined standards
- Maximized efficiency in recruiting, hiring,
training and promoting employees
- The committee determining the nature
of the security skills gap, providing industry-wide solutions
- Well defined, universal career paths,
providing workers with transferable skills and security
credentials
- Organizations can better compete in a
global economy that requires uniform security processes
