Application (BCA), B.Tech, Diploma In Computer Science, B.Sc.,
etc. you can Google these terms for subjects information.

of Cyber Security and it is also important for you to learn basics technical
skills to be a good ethical hacker or pen-tester.

What is Ethical
Hacking
Ethical
hacking is the process of testing a computer system, network, or web application
to find security vulnerabilities that a malicious hacker could exploit. Ethical
hackers use the same techniques as malicious hackers but try to identify and
fix vulnerabilities before they are exploited.
The
goal of ethical hacking is not to break into systems but rather to find
vulnerabilities in them so that they can be fixed before any damage is done.
The skills you will learn in this course are very valuable in today’s job
market because there are many companies that need ethical hackers now more than
ever before.
The demand for
Certified Ethical Hacker In Future
As we can see technology is used in
almost everything in human life and every sector like Medical, Mechanical,
Commercial, etc. required technology to work and grow. Life imagining without technology is near impossible and from a single person to billions of
companies are based on technology and network.
This increasing era of technology also
comes with many risks of data leaks, system hacks, money hacks, technical errors,
etc. and there are also some bad guys (who have good skills of hacking) that
can hack other systems for different purposes called black hat hackers and
dealing with system hacks, finding and fixing vulnerabilities in the systems
or networks before a bad hacker find it, prevent companies from being hacked,
etc. increase the demand of hacker.
This is basically a highly demanding
skill with very low competition in 2022 and according to researchers, it grow
more in the future, so choosing Ethical Hacking as a career is the best option.
