Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (9)

The JD states a Master's degree in a relevant field OR 10 additional years of experience as a substitute; because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, the degree requirement is set to None.

The minimum experience gate is 5 years of enterprise cybersecurity, compliance, risk management, or security operations — this is a role-level requirement, not tied to any single named technology.

NIST and DISA STIGs appear in the required qualifications block with firm language ('Experience supporting compliance initiatives aligned with NIST, DISA STIGs') and are treated as hard gates.

Vulnerability management is referenced in the required qualifications block ('familiarity with security hardening, vulnerability management, system auditing') and is treated as a hard gate.

ATO documentation, Zero Trust, PKI, and endpoint security all appear exclusively under the 'Preferred Qualifications' heading and are therefore preferred.

The clearance requirement is Public Trust (not a national-security clearance tier); the role gates on US citizenship or Green Card and willingness to obtain Public Trust — this does not map to any of the enumerated clearance levels, so the clearance requirement is set to None.

The caller has declared this a fully-remote, national-pool role; no metro is inferred despite the posting's reference to Eastern Time working hours.

Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): ATO documentation.

Caller marked this a fully-remote role — scored against the national candidate pool.
