Elementary and secondary schools, for instance, were reported as paying a mean figure of $62,260 into these positions, whereas network security specialists employed at securities and commodities exchanges or insurance and employee benefit funds earned better than $90,000 annually.

A network security specialist job's geographical location has an effect on salary numbers as well, to the tune of several thousand dollars a year in some cases. Network security professionals in California, Massachusetts, and the District of Columbia all averaged more than $80,000 annually. In the northern states of the great plains -- Montana, Wyoming, and North and South Dakota -- mean annual wages don't rise above $56,000. Although this difference seems like a lot, however, differences in the cost of living from state to state are a big factor.
