Much is written on the topics of current gaps in the education and training of a cybersecurity workforce and the need for technology research and development (R&D) to solve cybersecurity technical issues. This CRS report directs the reader to authoritative sources that address many of these prominent issues. The annotated descriptions of these sources are listed in reverse chronological order, with an emphasis on material published in the past several years. It includes resources and studies from government agencies (federal, state, local, and international), think tanks, academic institutions, news organizations, and other sources related to Table 1 --education and training, including scholarships, internships, the cybersecurity workforce, and the National Cybersecurity Centers of Excellence (NCCoE); and Table 2 --R&D, including the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA), National Science Foundation (NSF), Department of Defense (DOD), and private industry R&D programs and funding.
