I am not sure where else to put this, found a typo (needs a correction) in the ISC2 2022 Workforce

Hi All,

Here is a copy\paste from the top of page 51 of the 2022 ISC2 workforce study:

"Cybersecurity professionals are highly educated. Out of those
surveyed, 39% have attained a bachelor’s degree as their highest
form of education, 43% have earned a master’s degree, and 5%
have attained a doctorate (3%) or post-doctoral (2%) degree (see
figure 30).

Now, figure 30 (on page 52) shows that there are 3% of doctorate-holders in cyber.

In the underlined section of the quotation above there are two percentages listed, first 5%, then 3% in parenthesis. The sentence is confusing.

PS, I am one of the 3% (I think that it is 3%, if I am reading the 2022 Workforce Study correctly).

Caute_Cautim, can you please help to clarify?

(PS, why cannot a post have custom labels any more?)

thanks,

Dr. J. S. Buitron, DCS

Hello,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. For brevity but to provide more granularity in the report, the authors will occasionally use parenthesis to denote a specific data segment. We understand how this one can feel a little confusing. We will relay this feedback to our research team. Thanks.
