The White House on Tuesday unveiled a recruitment agenda that envisions a tour of duty fighting hackers for the U.S. government as part of any private cyber pro's career.

"The supply of cybersecurity talent to meet the increasing demand of the federal government is simply not sufficient," officials from the White House and Office of Personnel Management said in a government blog post. "This shortfall affects not only the federal government, but the private sector as well."
