Why learn Cryptography and Network Security?
With the advent of the World Wide Web and the emergence of e-commerce applications and social networks, organizations across the world generate a large amount of data daily. Data security is the utmost critical issue in ensuring the safe transmission of information through the internet. Also, network security issues are now becoming important as society is moving towards the digital information age. As more and more users connect to the internet it attracts a lot of cyber-criminals. It comprises authorization of access to information in a network, controlled by the network administrator. The task of network security not only requires ensuring the security of end systems but of the entire network.
In today's world, crypto professionals are in great demand both within the government and private sectors. NSA, FBI, CIA, think tanks, and other federal government and defense and intelligence contractors are always on the lookout to hire these individuals. Companies offering encryption, digital data services, and authentication tools are heavy in hiring crypto and security practitioners. The demand across all industries for increased computer security is growing, and cryptography is a subcategory within the career field of information security. Cryptologists are in demand in the military forces, government agencies, technology companies, banking and financial organization s, law enforcement agencies, universities, and research institutes. Depending on the profile of the organization one is involved with, the area of functioning varies. So it is worth having a go at it.
