Are Infosec salaries lower than those in Software development?

Hello everyone,

I'm working in Software development and therefore know the available roles and their typical corresponding salaries.

After checking a few infosec-focused positions like "Application security engineer", "Application security manager", "Information security (cybersecurity) analyst / consultant", the salaries seem to be 30-50% lower than similar ones (skills/experience-wise) in Software development.

Is this observation correct? I hope it's not, but curious to hear from people working in the field.

Thank you.
