They added a number of starter classes including introduction to coding, introduction to reverse engineering and introduction to critical infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other new courses address a growing industry interest in criminal aspects of cybersecurity, tackling such topics as mobile-device forensics and cyber investigation. Analysts see big <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lanews.org\/digital-forensics-market-analysis-trends-forecast-2017-2027\/\">job demand<\/a> around digital forensics, driven by the increasing complexity of cybercrimes, coupled with the rise of highly specialized tools for tracing the origins of cyber-attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Civilian and military users from the Defense Department make up a large percentage of the user base, and veterans are among the fastest-growing segment of participants, but IT professionals from across the civilian agencies also take courses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey may be motivated by the news about cyber threats, but more so they are motivated by seeing how many jobs and careers may potentially be available if they can increase their knowledge,\u201d said Daniel Stein, branch chief, Cybersecurity Education and Awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Available via desktop or mobile device, FedVTE offers more than 60 courses including beginner courses as well as training for professional certifications exams such as <a href=\"https:\/\/certification.comptia.org\/certifications\/security\">Security+<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eccouncil.org\/programs\/certified-ethical-hacker-ceh\/\">Certified Ethical Hacker<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.isc2.org\/Certifications\/CISSP\">Certified Information Security Systems Professional<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMaybe they are just learning about cybersecurity, they just need to understand the language that we use,\u201d Kyle said. \u201cThen there are much more advanced courses for technical people looking to refine their skills. We have some introductory courses that might take an hour, up to courses that can take 20 to 30 hours.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All FedVTE courses align with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nist.gov\/itl\/applied-cybersecurity\/nice\/resources\/nice-cybersecurity-workforce-framework\">NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework<\/a>, a common system used to classify cyber jobs in government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Department of Homeland Security is beefing up a free online learning tool aimed at helping government IT professionals
