Just in case you haven’t heard the economy has been in a bit of a rough patch. Everyone has been tightening their belts. Well, here’s a ray of sunshine. The Department of Homeland Security has been authorized by the Obama administration to hire as many as 1,000 IT security professionals over the next 3 years. Areas they will be hiring include vulnerability detection, cyber risk and strategic analysis, network and systems engineering, and much more.
Cyber Security Dream Team is the goal
DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano made the announcement October 1 during remarks tied to the start of National Cybersecurity Awareness Month:
“Effective cyber-security requires all partners—individuals, communities, government entities and the private sector—to work together to protect our networks and strengthen our cyber-resiliency,” Napolitano said. “This new hiring authority will enable DHS to recruit the best cyber-analysts, developers and engineers in the world to serve their country by leading the nation’s defenses against cyber-threats.”
Join ranks soldier
So whether you’re out of work or just want a new job, update your resume, pay all your back taxes, and apply for one of these new government slots ASAP! Now, since I was kind of enough to give you a lead on your new job all I’ll ask is that you put in a good word with your rich Uncle Sam for Mailprotector’s award winning email security and Hosted Exchange 2007 services. We’ll make you look like a rock star when you show him the reports of all the spam, viruses, Trojans and other email-borne malware we’re stopping. He may even give you some of that bailout money as a bonus for doing such a great job. Now that’s kick-starting the economy!
Happy National Cyber Security Awareness Month!
