Question

Present the final numbers for an information security team with a budget of $800,000 that includes information security personnel and software.

Using resources like Indeed and Glassdoor, estimate the annual costs of your team members (be sure to add 25% to the listed salary for benefits).

Answer 1

The members of an information security team are as follows:

1. Information Security Engineers (Average Salary: $88,704)
2. System Administrators (Average Salary: $125690)
3. Application Security Engineers (Average Salary: $ 100705)
4. Chief Information Officer (Average Salary: $ 159945)
5. Network Engineers (Average Salary: $87484)
6. Computer Operators (Average Salary: $35100)
7. Total Salary: $ 597628

If we increase 25% of the listed salary considering that these are the benefits given to each employee then we will get a total of $ 747035.

Hence, we can keep this much of the team members in an information security team to match the budget and also fulfill the requirements of the team especially.
