CYBERSECURITY ANALYST

For students who want to advance in an IT career, they need a solid understanding of computer and network security. Adding security certifications to their portfolio opens doors for employment opportunities and a higher salary. These days, even entry level positions are requiring some background in cybersecurity. Organizations are finding that putting more emphasis on security skills for IT professionals makes financial sense when compared to the repercussions of a data breach.
