Cybersecurity Education Firm to Begin With Shuttle Engineers

Education in the growing field of cybersecurity is set to begin with NASA engineers after the conclusion of the space shuttle program.  The nonprofit Global Institute for Cybersecurity and Research (GICSR), in connection with  NASA, the US National Institute of Standards and Technology, the US Department of Homeland Security and the US National Security Agency, as well as security certification companies and academia, is beginning a cybersecurity certification program in Florida; it is hoped that the program will expand to other states to help staff the unfilled positions across the country [SC Magazine  http://www.scmagazine.com.au/Feature/259366,cybersecurity-the-next-frontier-for-nasa-engineers.aspx ].
