More and More Cyber Jobs Require AI Expertise

A SANS Institute analysis of 6,193 active cybersecurity job postings found that a growing number require significant artificial intelligence (AI) expertise rather than baseline familiarity. The job market shows increasing demand for AI skills, though there is no consensus method for evaluating proficiency levels.

Why it matters: Security practitioners and hiring managers should assess what AI competencies are truly needed for roles and develop consistent skill evaluation standards, as the market increasingly expects advanced AI knowledge.
