Boyd Rutherford, alongside a proclamation making November "Hire-a-Veteran Month." The program follows a November 2016 Virginia pilot, run with Amazon Web Services, (ISC)2, Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet, that offered free online entry-level cyber training to 200 veterans, and the Maryland version adds NetApp and the National Development group with support from the Departments of Labor, Commerce, and Veterans Affairs and state colleges.
What you should know: The article cites nearly 2 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs worldwide while more than 200,000 service members transition to civilian work each year - a pipeline the program is built to route into security roles.
