Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Aug 15, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.
Why we read it this way (6)
An Associate's degree in a related field is listed as a requirement, but the posting explicitly states that additional years of experience may be substituted — degree requirement is therefore treated as None.
ITIL Foundations is listed as required but with a grace period: candidates must hold it or obtain it within 60 days of hire.
Security+ is listed as required but the posting accepts an equivalent DoD 8570 IAT Level II certification in its place; Security+ is named as the primary with DoD 8570 compliance as the framing standard.
No compensation figures are provided in the posting.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Firewall administration.
Requires a Secret clearance — the cleared population is a small fraction of this occupation, so the real candidate pool is materially smaller than the estimate below, which does not model clearance.
