Guidance Software, maker of EnCase®, has announced the availability of Certified Forensic Security Responder (CFSR) training. This highly anticipated certification fills the skills gap with industry-accepted tools and methodologies for users in forensic analysis, or root cause analysis, which supports the incident response cycle.
Knowledgeable security professionals are in high demand with projected openings outpacing the number of available applicants. In 2014, there were 82,900 information security analysts with that number expected to rise to 97,700 by 2024. More than 209,000 cybersecurity-related jobs are currently unfilled. Certifications like CFSR may help new and experienced IT professionals acquire the skills they need to transition into the security industry.
