Abstract
The turnover rate of information security professionals in Korea is over 10% and turnover into non-information security fields accounts for over 50% of all the turnovers [1]. It is not only important to recruit a new quality workforce, but also to make the current workforce perform satisfactorily, to improve their performance, and eventually to attain information security objectives. This study proposes a Markov chain model for the turnover process of information security professionals and forecasts the job duty composition of information security professionals. The results of this study can be applied to secure the justification of government policies for the promotion of information security professionals.
