Totally agree with this. I think security / infosec is just seen as a small niche, so people lump the cryptographers, auditors, SOC analyst, malware analyst, appsec, incident response type people all in one group. It's hard to find someone who can cover all that ground proficiently. Of course it's also been my findings that people who end up in infosec tends to be generalists, but I wonder if that is shifting now that you see more cyber security school initiatives. Total tangent but, I am absolutely grossed out by "cyber" winning out in the name game. Who let the DoD drive that? Damnit!
