Black Friday: 30% off online training deals help professionals capitalize on cybersecurity job shortage

IT Governance is pleased to announce its Black Friday deals, which include 30% off all ISO27001 online training courses.

BOISE, IDAHO, USA, November 28, 2014 /EINPresswire.com/ -- IT Governance, the international provider of cybersecurity products and services, is pleased to announce its Black Friday deals, which include 30% off all ISO27001 online training courses.

With cyber crime causing billions of dollars of losses each year, demand for qualified cybersecurity professionals is increasing at an unmatchable rate. Evidence points to an information security hiring crisis in the US, as in the rest of the world.

Earlier this year, the 2014 Cisco Annual Security Report (CASR) projected a global shortage of between 500,000 and 1,000,000 IT security professionals in the foreseeable future, and CIA cybersecurity expert James Gosler argued that the United States needs 30,000 technical cybersecurity workers right now.

Attendees at August’s Black Hat USA 2014 conference – the largest cybersecurity conference in North America – confirmed that there is a severe, and worsening, shortage of information security professionals, and that there were more cybersecurity jobs in the US than there were people to fill them.

American information security professionals looking to capitalize on these opportunities should take advantage of IT Governance’s festive offers to further their careers. These deals include 30% off all ISO27001 online training courses, which provide globally recognized information security qualifications.

ISO27001 is the international information security management standard that sets out the requirements of an information security management system (ISMS), and against which enterprises can achieve certification to demonstrate their compliance with international best practices.

The Standard is growing in popularity and reputation: certifications to ISO27001 increased 29% from 2012 to 2013 in the US according to the latest ISO survey, and numbers are only expected to grow.

The following online courses are on offer until midnight December 1 2014:

ISO27001 Certified ISMS Foundation Online – Save $142.50
ISO27001 Certified ISMS Lead Implementer Online – Save $570
ISO27001 Certified Lead Auditor Online – Save $420
ISO 27001:2013 Certified ISMS Transition Online – Save $195

These offers are part of IT Governance’s festive offers campaign, which provides significant savings on ISO27000 standards and resources, including the No 3 Comprehensive ISO 27001:2013 ISMS Toolkit.
