Addressing the Increased Threats to Global Security in Cyberspace: A Highly Skilled Workforce

Daniel “Rags” Ragsdale
Deputy Assistant National Cyber Director
White House Office of the National Cyber Director

12:30–1:30 pm ET Friday, 26 April 2024
online via WebEx

The National Cyber Workforce and Education Strategy (NCWES) represents an important step toward enhancing the security and resilience of our digital future. It focuses on three critically important dimensions: People, People, and People. The NCWES highlights the overriding importance of making foundational cyber skill learning accessible to everyone and the need to increase investment in cyber education from K-12 through higher education, and beyond. The strategy aims to address many of the challenges that must be addressed to increase the capacity of the cyber workforce and education systems to fill the hundreds of thousands of currently vacant cyber jobs and to enhance workforce diversity by reducing barriers to entry for underrepresented groups and underserved communities. By prioritizing regional and sector-based cyber ecosystems and by empowering students, educators, and job seekers, the NCWES seeks to fill the many good-paying, rewarding, and fulfilling jobs that support our increasingly interconnected world.

The strategy outlines four pillars:
  • Equipping every American with foundational cyber skills
  • Transforming cyber education
  • Expanding and enhancing America’s cyber workforce
  • Strengthening the federal cyber workforce.

Daniel “Rags” Ragsdale is a Deputy Assistant National Cyber Director in the White House Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD). He plays a key role in implementing the National Cyber Workforce and Education Strategy Implementation Plan (NCWES IP), a comprehensive plan that involved collaboration among multiple government agencies, state and local governments, academic and civic organizations, and industry partners. Ragsdale has a diverse background, including serving as Vice President for R&D at Two Six Technologies and holding various senior positions in the Department of Defense (DoD), over a 40-year career.  Ragsdale has been involved in cybersecurity education since 1999 and he was Program Manager at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Colonel (ret.) Ragsdale’s military service includes three combat deployments and he has received numerous awards and decorations for his many contributions. He is a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point. He holds a Master of Science degree in Computer Science from the Naval Postgraduate School and a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Texas A&M University.

My name is Kethya and I'm a junior at UMBC. I'm looking for a room to rent near UMBC for the upcoming school year. I'm a quiet and reasonably clean female. A furnished room would be a bonus, but I'm open to unfurnished options as well. I'm a responsible and considerate tenant who values mutual respect and clear communication with roommates. Access to a close bus stop would be convenient for me. If you have a room available that fits these criteria, I'd love to hear more about it!

Please reach out to me by email or text:

On Friday, April 19, 2024, students from UMBC and MSU visited NASA Headquarters, Washington, DC, for NASA’s 2024 Earth Day Event. Dominique Footes (GESTAR II/SURA) coordinated with Trena Ferrell (NASA GSFC/610) as well as GESTAR II’s Charles Ichoku, Belay Demoz, Dan Laughlin, and Zhibo Zhang. She worked with doctoral student Roy Prouty (CSST/UMBC) and Dr. Ferrell to assemble a group of undergraduate and graduate students from UMBC as well as a GESTAR II MSU Undergraduate Fellow to attend the event. 

At NASA HQ, attendees were divided into groups; one group was led by Caterina Mogno (614/UMBC). Additionally, Inia Soto Ramos (616/MSU) staffed one of the information tables. NASA Earth Day activity topics focused on ICESat-2, PACE, JPSS, Heliophysics, Disasters, among others, and the event provided immersive and augmented reality experiences.

UMBC and Carroll Community College recently signed a new dual-admissions agreement that will offer students who transfer to UMBC directly from Carroll a clear pathway to a bachelor’s degree after completing an associate degree at Carroll.

UMBC President Valerie Sheares Ashby and Carroll Community College President James D. Ball, along with Rosalie Mince, provost at Carroll, signed the memorandum of understanding on April 10 during a ceremony held at Carroll.

The agreement, which goes into effect for students planning to transfer to UMBC, establishes a collaboration between Carroll and UMBC that encourages Carroll students to graduate with an associate degree prior to transferring to receive guaranteed admission to UMBC. Students transferring from Carroll through this program will receive an application fee waiver, and students will have access to a pre-transfer advisor at UMBC for academic planning to ensure their Carroll courses align with their expected bachelor’s degree.

“UMBC’s partnership with Carroll Community College reaffirms our commitment to the recruitment, enrollment, and graduation of transfer students,” said President Sheares Ashby. “By building on successful programs like the Transfer Student Alliance and Transfer Plus, we can, together, make the very best education accessible to every student who desires it. I am so pleased to welcome future CCC students into the UMBC community so we can fully support them in achieving their goals.”
