Redundancy is never easy—especially in a fast-moving field like cyber security, where your skills and experience are constantly evolving. But if you’ve recently been made redundant from a cyber security role, know this: the UK cyber workforce remains in high demand, and your expertise is more valuable than ever.

Cyber Security Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Check Your Market Value in Seconds

Why yesterday’s pay survey no longer protects you. “Could I earn more at a managed SOC?” “Is that fintech’s offer really competitive?” Every UK cyber‑security professional asks some version of those questions—usually after another colleague lands a pay rise, a recruiter sends a tempting JD, or a fresh breach makes headline news. Yet salary guides published even last year feel as out‑of‑date as a forgotten antivirus signature.

To cut through stale averages, CybersecurityJobs.tech distilled a three‑factor formula that lets you estimate a realistic 2025 salary in under a minute. Feed in your role, your UK region, & your seniority level. The output arms you with data‑driven 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.
