Career Path

The Certificate in Cybersecurity Risk Mitigation and Planning: Essentials program prepares professionals for a range of cybersecurity roles. This section highlights the job market trends in the United Kingdom for these roles using a 3D pie chart. The chart below displays the percentage of each role in the UK cybersecurity job market, providing a clear visual representation of their demand and relevance. As a professional career path and data visualization expert, I utilized the Google Charts library to create a responsive, 3D pie chart. The chart's width is set to 100% to ensure it adapts to all screen sizes, complemented by a fixed height of 400px. A transparent background and no added background color maintain the chart's visual consistency with the rest of the content. The chart consists of five primary cybersecurity roles: Security Analyst, Security Engineer, Security Manager, Security Consultant, and Ethical Hacker. Each role is represented with a corresponding percentage reflecting its presence in the UK cybersecurity job market. This visual representation allows users to easily understand the relative demand for each role and assess their career growth opportunities in the industry. The JavaScript code initializes the Google Charts library, sets the chart options, and defines the data for the pie chart using the google.visualization.arrayToDataTable method. The is3D option is explicitly set to true to render the chart in 3D. This configuration ensures a visually appealing, engaging, and informative presentation of the cybersecurity roles and their respective percentages in the UK job market.
