In the coming years, China will face an acute shortage of cybersecurity specialists
By 2027, China will have a shortage of 3.27 million cybersecurity professionals, while the country’s higher education institutions are only capable of graduating 30,000 cybersecurity graduates annually. Demand from government organizations and enterprises for cybersecurity staff has skyrocketed in recent years amid an increase in online threats around the world. Relevant Chinese legislation, including the Cyber Security Law, Data Security Law, and Personal Information Protection Law, have also helped boost demand.
