CyberSec Training

In the Computer security or Information security fields, there are several tracks a professional can take to demonstrate qualifications. Quality and acceptance vary worldwide for IT security credentials, from well-known and high-quality examples like a master’s degree in the field from an accredited school, CISSP, and Microsoft certification, to a controversial list of many dozens of lesser-known credentials and organizations.

In addition to certification obtained by taking courses and/or passing exams and in the case of CISSP and others noted below, demonstrating experience and/or being recommended or given a reference from an existing credential holder, award certificates also are given for winning government, university or industry-sponsored competitions, including team competitions and contests.
