In an effort to reduce a growing cybersecurity workforce shortage at the federal level, Sens. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., and John Cornyn, R-Texas, have introduced legislation that would create a pilot apprenticeship program within the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
The Federal Cybersecurity Workforce Expansion Act would also create a cyber-training program within the Department of Veterans Affairs, equipping veterans to hold careers in cyber defense.
