When will the Cyber/Cyber Security bubble burst?

[Mr Rager]

Cyber is a big deal right now, large salaries, numerous jobs
The Fast-Growing Job With A Huge Skills Gap: Cyber Security

One Million Cybersecurity Job Openings In 2016

On top of that, people are getting into Cybersecurity startups and cyber consulting firms are popping up all over the US. This seems very reminiscent of the 'dot com' era
The question is, when is this bubble going to burst? I think one thing keeping it alive is that hacks and cyber intrusions are not going to stop, but it still seems like this market is on its way to oversaturation...thoughts?

The number of devices being connected to the internet is increasing exponentially, and security is universally agreed to be underinvested in almost every tech company. I really don't think there's enough people with high level security expertise like cryptography to meet the demand for decades to come. Not to mention if you really are a cryptography expert you could make many hundreds of thousands to possibly millions a year consulting and retire quickly.

So according to Forbes, there is so many unfilled positions but these companies aren't looking to train anyone? It says to start in Cyber security you need to start as a information security analyst. Going on to Indeed, I see that this position requires years of experience, some require security clearances even though the article states a bachelor's is entry level (which I have). Then they say if you don't have a degree just take some online courses.

Not in our lifetime...The people hiring for these roles are probably stupider than ever but the need will not go away.

All it takes is one big hack for a stock price to drop these days. Companies can't afford to skimp on Security if they want investor confidence.

Just like every other industry...

Training budgets for non-people management is practically zero at most non-Fortune companies, and very minimal within the Fortune 1000-5000 as it currently stands.

I'm a software developer who barely knows anything about security.......demand isn't going anywhere breh. My job LITERALLY had town hall meetings about cyber security today. They are rolling out a whole new department for it actually.
I know about basic stuff like cross site scripting and sql injection but the REAL security stuff? nah
Anyone have any idea what resources are good for learning security?
