This book presents a mapping between the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) National Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense (CAE-CD) Knowledge Units (KUs) and the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Workforce Framework 2.0. Since each of the CAE-CD and the NICE Frameworks were developed for different purposes, cybersecurity education vs. cybersecurity workforce, the mapping does not result in one for one relationship between the two. Many parallels and relationships can be drawn between these two Frameworks and by the exploring of those relationships, we can better understand the areas within the current CAE-CD KU construct on which to focus where opportunities for refinement or change may be needed. The mapping will allow further analysis and review needed to gain a greater understanding of the relationship between the Frameworks. Why buy a book you can download for free? We print this book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. We look over each document carefully and replace poor quality images by going back to the original source document. We proof each document to make sure it's all there - including all changes. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these l
The book establishes a critical link between two key frameworks in U.S. cybersecurity education and workforce development. It details the mapping between the NSA/DHS CAE-CD Knowledge Units and the NICE Workforce Framework 2.0, acknowledging that their differing purposes (education vs. workforce) prevent a one-to-one correspondence. The analysis explores the relationships and parallels between these frameworks to identify areas within the CAE-CD KU construct that may benefit from refinement or change, thereby facilitating a deeper understanding of their interconnections.
This publication serves as a technical reference for professionals and educators involved in cybersecurity curriculum development and workforce planning. The authors' stated goal is to provide a clear mapping that aids in understanding the alignment between educational knowledge units and workforce competencies. The commentary highlights the practical difficulties in accessing and preparing such documents for use, positioning the printed version as a convenient alternative to self-printing. The book's value lies in its detailed comparison and the potential insights it offers for improving cybersecurity education and training programs.
