Cyber Security/IT Security

Hi,
The increased speed and efficiency of electronic information sharing through computer networks and the Internet is accompanied by the inherent risk of cyber threats to the security of that information. Interest in cyber security maintaining the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of information exchanged across electronic networks, has risen across the world. Cyber security has been gaining greater attention in India and has been identified as a key thrust area by the national government. Various initiatives have been taken both by governmental associations and agencies as well as the private sector in order to protect and secure the IT infrastructure assets across the country. India is making a concerted effort to build world-class capability and capacity in the area of cyber security. A great deal of the focus is being placed on creating top-class advanced scientific and research institutions in the country as well as in developing trained manpower in this field. India is a large global player in the IT industry and plans to not only secure its IT assets, but also to emerge as a global player in the field of cyber security products and services.

Cyber Crime is the major threat to business enterprises and government entities. As per KPMG report, most of the top 500 business enterprises have reported information security breach in year 2015. There are two types of cyber security experts:
1. Computing resources cyber security experts.
2. Information security analysts.
Computer resources security experts maintain computer and network security and update security programs as necessary. Information security analysts develop an organization's computer security standards. They install software programs to protect information stored on computers, and monitor computer networks for security breaches.
Graduation degrees such as B.Tech CSE/ IT, BCA + MCA or B.Sc CS are mandatory qualifications for career in cyber security. You are advised to choose any of above mentioned degree for career in cyber security.
The most of information security analysts grow from computer or networking administration jobs. In addition to basic education training courses leading to ISACA certifications e.g. CISA, CISM CISCO, etc. certifications will be helpful for long term career as cyber expert.
The CISA certification is world-renowned as the standard of achievement for those who audit, control, monitor and assess an organizations information technology and business systems. The management-focused CISM is the globally accepted standard for individuals who design, build and manage enterprise information security programs.
