Aligning the NCWF and Cybersecurity career paths
Ultimately the goal is to do something you like to do, provide for your family and take care of your responsibilities; although I have had genuine success in meeting this three objectives I can also say that i understand simply wanting to move into a career field that has momentum. (insert job forecast)
I hope that by discussing both the National framework and the various career paths that I can demystify what cyber security is in respect to Information Technology as well as provide some ad hock guidance to prepare cyber workforce prospects for a very rewarding career

"The National Cybersecurity Workforce Framework provides a blueprint to categorize, organize, and describe cybersecurity work into Specialty Areas, tasks, and knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs)." It represents the broadest overarching dialogue on jobs, skill sets and workforce expectations in respect to each distinct functionality. This does not, however represent a strict skill set trajectory, since individuals may have multiple functions based on the size and strategic objectives of the organization. The Investigate and Operate/ Maintain functions are a practical example where an organization could benefit from combining the functionalities into one Job requirement.
The NCWF also "provides a common language to speak about cyber roles and jobs and helps define personal requirements in cybersecurity."
