US hankering for hackers

August 05, 2011

"“Today it's cyber warriors that we're looking for, not rocket scientists,” said Richard “Dickie” George, technical director of the NSA's Information Assurance Directorate, the agency's cyber-defence side.

“That's the race that we're in today. And we need the best and brightest to be ready to take on this cyber warrior status,” he told Reuters in an interview.

The NSA is hiring about 1,500 people in the fiscal year which ends Sept. 30 and another 1,500 next year, most of them cyber experts. With a workforce of just over 30,000, the Fort Meade, Maryland-based NSA dwarfs other intelligence agencies, including the CIA."
