Curious the vertical analysis...
Thought the drop noted here is notable, it's not clear how this messaging is stacking up against other like industries... for example, where do IT infrastucture people compare.

Security and its many disciplines are tough jobs.  You're usually an overhead function, which means constant budget pressure, especially if you don't have a clear risk management process/plan. Security leaders have a difficult time navigating what the relationship with the board should be (and thier responsibilties), leaving the security team in ambiguous states of responsibility - a bad place ot be in a  breach.  Every company today is tehcnolgy driven, and tech adoption and operationalization is often the lynchpin of competitive edge... agile security is hard and can drag the business in it's goals.  

I think there's some organizational coaching work, better leadership around roles and repsonsibilties, and better technical approaches that could change the climate for the security proffessional.
