Why Federal Agencies and Fortune 500 Companies Are Desperate for this Little Known Skill

And why they’re happy to pay $90,000, $120,000, $150,000+ per year — just for mastering this one in-demand skill…

Hi there,

Nicole Enesse here — cybersecurity professional with 10+ years of experience.

Today, I want to share a career-boosting secret most cybersecurity professionals overlook.

It’s not flashy. It’s not about hacking or breaking into systems. And it’s definitely not the first thing people think of when they imagine “cutting-edge cybersecurity.”

But it’s one of the most valuable skills you can have if you’re looking to break into high-paying roles, escape burnout, and finally feel in control of your career.

What is it?

I’ll get to that. First, let me share how I discovered it…

From Burnout to Breakthrough

After a decade in IT and cybersecurity, I was burned out.

I’d been a network administrator, system administrator, and worked in security operations. My days were a constant cycle of solving technical issues, protecting infrastructures, and putting out fires.

And while I was good at my job, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was stuck.

I was always reacting to crises. Always on call. Always under pressure in high-stakes environments.

It wasn’t the career I envisioned.

I wanted to do meaningful work, advance in my field, and build a life with more stability. But I had no idea how to make that happen.

The Shift That Changed Everything

That’s when I stumbled upon a game-changing skill.

At first, I didn’t understand its power. It seemed boring, bureaucratic, and full of jargon.

But as I dug deeper, I realized this wasn’t just a skill — it was a framework for thinking strategically.

This framework turned the chaos of cybersecurity into clear, actionable steps.

Instead of reacting to risks, I learned how to anticipate them.

Instead of chasing compliance, I discovered how to align security with business goals seamlessly.

And instead of feeling stuck in technical roles, I found a path into leadership-driven positions where my expertise was truly valued.

The Framework Behind Every High-Stakes Cybersecurity Operation

That skill? It’s the Risk Management Framework (RMF).

I know what you’re thinking: “Risk management? That doesn’t sound exciting.”

I thought the same thing at first.

But here’s the truth:

RMF isn’t just about compliance. It’s the foundation for securing systems in the largest organizations in the world. 

It’s the framework that organizations use to:

• Identify and mitigate risks.
• Align security measures with regulatory and business goals.
• Ensure systems are authorized to operate and in compliance

Without RMF, systems can’t get deployed. Businesses lose money. And organizations face serious legal and operational risks.

That’s why companies are desperate for qualified RMF professionals — and willing to pay top dollar for them.

How This Little Known Framework Transformed My Career

Once I mastered RMF, everything changed.

I landed a role as an ISSO for a high-performance computing environment, where I wasn’t just managing security — I was leading it.

And with that role came balance, stability, and higher pay.

RMF gave me:

• A clear path out of burnout.
• A skillset that stays relevant (unlike technical skills that become obsolete).
• Opportunities to lead and make a real impact.
• Becoming irresistible to hiring managers with this low competition skill

Why This Low Competition, High Demand Skill Is Cybersecurity’s Best-Kept Secret

Most cybersecurity professionals chase flashy roles like penetration testing or red teaming.

But RMF? It’s the hidden goldmine of cybersecurity.

Every organization that operates in compliance-heavy environments — like federal agencies, financial banks, healthcare, and Fortune 500 companies — needs RMF experts.

The demand is high, and the supply is low.

That’s what makes RMF one of the most lucrative skills in cybersecurity today.

Introducing the GRC Apprentice Course

I know RMF can feel overwhelming at first. But once you break it down, it’s straightforward.

Finding training that shows you the ACTUAL tasks you will do on the job is very difficult. I know, because I looked. Instead I spent hundreds of hours researching and piecing together things .

That’s why I created the GRC Apprentice Course.

This course is EXACTLY what you would do at a job that utilizes RMF.

In Just 8 Weeks, This Course Will Help You:

1. Master RMF Without the Overwhelm
   • Simplify the Risk Management Framework (RMF) into clear, actionable steps you’ll actually use in real-world cybersecurity jobs.
2. Build a Cybersecurity Program from Scratch -Learn how to design, implement, and manage a complete cybersecurity program for any system — a skill employers are actively searching for."
3. Gain Hands-On, Job-Ready Experience
   • Work on real-world tasks like mapping controls, conducting risk assessments, and preparing ATO packages, so you’re ready to hit the ground running on day one.
4. Stand Out with a Portfolio Employers Love

If you’re ready to break into high-paying cybersecurity roles, escape burnout, and master a skill that will stay relevant for years to come, this course is for you.

You’ll APPLY the Skills You’ll Learn in the GRC Apprentice Course

This isn’t just about learning GRC in theory…

We’ll guide you through applying this knowledge to the seven core components of a RMF.

If you’ve ever configured systems, managed networks, or sat at the IT Helpdesk , you’ve already been brushing up against GRC principles without even realizing it.

And the good news is — you’re more prepared than you think!

By the end of this course, you’ll have real, hands-on experience applying GRC principles to IT environments — transforming your IT expertise into the strategic skills that make you stand out in the cybersecurity and compliance world.
