Cybercrime is on a steady rise and drastically impacts every industry imaginable. According to the Internet Crime Complaint Center of the FBI, cybercriminals cost consumers and business owners 2.7 billion dollars in losses in 2018.
Couple that alarming statistic with the fact that CyberCrime Magazine predicts there will be 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs in 2021. Due to the shortage of cybersecurity personnel, many developers, hobbyists, and business owners are trying to proactively learn about security threats so they can keep their hard work safe.
