The gap between the huge demand for information security (infosec) professionals around the world and its supply is widening every year. The Philippines is not exempted to this and is needing around 80,000 infosec professionals yearly. The study determined in length the drivers and megatrends that make information security an in-demand career today. It was established why the demand cannot be supplied. Then the current state outside the country and inside the country of infosec were researched and one expectations on this field moving forward were deduced. The study also showed some supporting information from experts in the field. The experts came from universities, the private sector, and the government. Then, after all the information was gathered, the relationships of critical variables on the research that affect the supply and demand of information security professionals were determined. Scenarios were then speculated so that some scenarios in the future were crafted to seek responses and strategies to the information security field today. Then from these scenarios, the most recommended strategy that could best handle all these possible future scenarios was suggested. This study created a strategy on how the Philippines can later on fill in this very valuable and in-demand field. Foresight technique was used to systematically determine the strategy.
