Résumé

The demand for cybersecurity professionals is growing. Many cybersecurity academic and training programmes exist to prepare students and professionals for these jobs. The programmes cover many areas of cybersecurity with considerable overlap, but with different emphases. Some are highly technical and cover little non-technical; others do the opposite. Cybersecurity jobs typically require some technical knowledge, an ability to place security problems in a larger context, and an ability to communicate this information effectively and convincingly. The problem with treating technical and non-technical subjects as silos rather than recognizing the two are tightly related and need to be taught together. This paper shows how seven common cybersecurity frameworks and ten masters’ courses from the UK and US cover both technical and non-technical content. It examines the balance of technical courses, non-technical courses, and courses that mix both technical and non-technical material. It argues that these topics cannot be siloed, and their balance is critical to meeting the goals of the frameworks and programmes.
