Redundancy is never easyโespecially in a fast-moving field like cyber security, where your skills and experience are constantly evolving.

Why yesterdayโs pay survey no longer protects you. โCould I earn more at a managed SOC?โ โIs that fintechโs offer really competitive?โ Every UK cyberโsecurity professional asks some version of those questionsโusually after another colleague lands a pay rise, a recruiter sends a tempting JD, or a fresh breach makes headline news.

Feed in your role, your UK region, & your seniority level. The output arms you with dataโdriven leverage for your next appraisal, job application, or freelance rate card. This article explains the formula, reveals the forces pushing cyber pay ever higher, & outlines five practical moves to boost your market value within ninety days.
