Millennials Looking to Cybersecurity Careers, Security
Those of the Millennial Generation (born between 1980 and early 2000s) have upped their game to keep private information safe, but while they show a keen interest in cybersecurity careers, they don’t know exactly what that entails.
According to a Raytheon-NCSA Millennial survey, Preparing Millennials to Lead in Cyberspace, 87 percent of the 1,000 respondents say they are responsible for keeping themselves safe and secure online. More than two-thirds of young people between 18 and 26 years of age regularly follow cybersecurity developments, and 20 percent of those get this information from news outlets.
