Diversity

Growing diversity in cyber, but still a long way to go

The percentage of ethnic minorities working in cyber in the UK has seen an upward trend over the last three years, although it appears to have plateaued at 22 percent after rising from 16 percent in 2020 to 25 percent in 2022.  While the cyber workforce is slightly more diverse than that of the digital sector and UK workforce as a whole, the percentages are still lagging far behind where they should be and the US cyber workforce shows similarly lackluster percentages.
