The UK is suffering from a worrying shortage of skilled professionals in the cyber security sector.
Over 90% of IT employers have reported difficulty in recruiting for cyber security positions and 60% indicated that the demand would increase over the next five years.
To help inspire more people to enter the industry The Open University has teamed up with the Government and security industry to create The Cyber Security Challenge, a competition to find the brightest minds in the UK.
The Challenge will reward winners with professional training courses, create partnerships in the industry and will inspire anyone thinking of developing a career in cyber security.
For more information and to find out how your business can benefit and get involved, visit the Cyber Security Challenge website.
