2024 -2025 Infosec Staff Compensation & Career Benchmark Survey

BY IANS + ARTICO

Your input into the 2024-2025 Infosec Staff Comp & Career Survey is valuable to you and the security community.

The results, from you and over 550 of your peers, enable you to make data-driven decisions around your compensation level relative to the current market, assess your career development and your work-life balance.

Our annual survey is developed in partnership with Executive Cyber Recruiters Steve Martano (also an IANS Faculty member), and Matt Comyns of Artico Search. You'll find new features including a streamlined survey experience along with refined infosec role categories that better reflect the market.

As a valued respondent, you will be the first to receive a series of in-depth reports on security leadership, org design and staff compensation - along with industry specific reports in the coming months.

 

The resulting data analysis and report will include:
