A part of me thinks it’s low on purpose so the only candidates that apply are doing it for ideological reasons, and aren’t motivated by money (thus opening them up to risk of being bought by a foreign agency). Who knows, maybe it would be revealed their salary would quadruple after they get the job.
But the likelihood is that their budgets are low and can’t compete with the private sector.

The German equivalent did the same. The list of requirements was as long as an arm or two. from memory: The person should be a team leader with 10+ years of experience, know Windows, MacOS and Linux, networking, security, hacking, etc, pp, and have knowledge of the legal issues regarding this stuff on top of the technical knowledge to boot.
They offered ~€2500/month. Some guy with a company in that business said that he would rent out someone with that level of knowledge (minus the legal stuff) for more than that per day.
They pulled the ad after a few months.

I know people who earn more than that working 4 days a week as a bank clerk. It seems to be universal of governments all over the world doesn’t it.
