In addition to the issues laid out in the article (which are problems for finding good talent in all areas of government, not just cybersecurity) is that the cybersecurity mission for the United States crosses a number of agencies and I'm not really sure anybody knows what is going on - let alone new hires trying to navigate the morasse. The result is that multiple agencies cannibalize talent to perform what could be the same mission - and might not even talk to each other. Who is responsible for domestic network security? Government network security? Public/private cooperation? Critical infrastructure? Cyber crime? Cyber crime that crosses international boundaries or that might impact national security? Right now cyber is a great way to get money out of congress. To be effective moving forward the responsibilities for each agency need to be figured out, and the checks and balances on each should be established.
