Abstract
The European Cybersecurity Skills Framework (ECSF) was introduced by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) to identify the necessary competencies, knowledge, and skills required for European cybersecurity professionals. The ECSF condenses all cybersecurity-related positions into 12 role profiles, aiming to establish a mutual understanding of essential roles and support the creation of cybersecurity training programs. In order to address the shortage of cybersecurity experts, a multi-criteria selection method is developed to increase the availability, accessibility, and quality of cybersecurity courses and certifications. This Course Selection methodology ensures high-quality training materials that meet the current and future needs of the cybersecurity industry and benefit a wide range of participants. The methodology considers six criteria and provides a scoring system to rank the occupational profiles and select the most relevant profiles for the course design. Our final score formula identifies Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), Cyber Incident Responder, Cyber Threat Intelligence Specialist, and Penetration Tester for the Course creation.
