Wanted: ‘Cyber Ninjas’

Attention all cyber ninjas, please report to the employment office, everyone wants to hire you (please leave your nunchucks and throwing stars at home).

In fact, as attacks on vital computer systems proliferate, surveys show a serious shortage of talent to combat them. Banks, military contractors and software companies, along with federal agencies, are looking for "cyber ninjas" to fend off a sophisticated array of hackers, from criminals stealing credit card numbers to potential military adversaries.
