Cybersecurity skills strategy: Estonia

The Cybersecurity Skills Strategy report from Estonia addresses the growing need for cybersecurity expertise to tackle evolving threats. This strategy identifies shortages of professionals, education gaps, and industry needs, aligning with national and EU initiatives such as the NIS2 Directive and the EU Cybersecurity Strategy.
The strategy focuses on strengthening cybersecurity education and training, upskilling and reskilling professionals to meet industry demands, raising awareness through targeted campaigns, and aligning information gathering with future needs. This report also highlights critical skills gaps in roles like Penetration Testers and AI Security Specialists. Finally, it integrates stakeholder input, leveraging CyberHubs activities, industry collaborations, and regulatory frameworks to bridge these gaps.
