The NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework is the foundation for increasing the size and capability of the U.S. cybersecurity workforce. It provides a common definition of cybersecurity, a comprehensive list of cybersecurity tasks, and the knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) required to perform those tasks. All FedVTE courses are aligned with NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework work roles, so you can find courses that are the most applicable to your role.
