Did you know that a software developer is considered part of the cybersecurity workforce? That's right! Learning and implementing secure software development practices contributes to keeping individuals safe online and lowers the cybersecurity risks for enterprises. It also minimizes the need for organizations to defend against software vulnerabilities or respond to incidents – reducing the burden on other areas of the cybersecurity workforce.  Cybersecurity Career Awareness Week is coordinated by the National Initiative for Cybersecurity (NICE) and supported by a community of government, academic, non-profit, and private industry stakeholders. Commercial entities, materials, and resources provided in support of Cybersecurity Career Awareness Week may be identified in this email or on the nist.gov/nice/ccaw web site or linked web sites.
