How the Decipher Index is made
Each issue aggregates public-source data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, CyberSeek, CISA KEV, ISC2 and CompTIA official schedules, and national statistical authorities across LATAM. No scraped data, no paywalled analyst reports, no proprietary databases. Every figure is cited at the point of claim.
Written and verified by Julian Calvo, Ed.D., M.S., founder of DecipherU. See the methodology page and editorial policy for the verification workflow.
