Cybersecurity has been developing alongside modern security, and accelerated in recent years as threats and attacks become more sophisticated.
Nowadays, it’s one of the fastest-growing areas of the IT sector, meaning there is a high demand for people with these skills.
Study cybersecurity online
Given the rise of data breaches and the number of business processes managed online, cybersecurity is a growing field and shows no signs of slowing.
It is estimated to grow by 37% from 2012-2022, with new software and positions being created regularly.
Gaining knowledge and certifications in this area can open up a range of job opportunities including for cybersecurity specialists, engineers, analysts, architects, investigators, and auditors.
As well as requiring a general knowledge of IT, these positions require problem-solving, communication, time-management, and attention to detail.
An online course can help you learn and develop many of these soft skills as well as the hard skills required to work within cybersecurity.
Online learning is flexible and convenient, regardless of your current situation. Trying to fit your studies around your existing work and home life can be difficult.
However, an online cybersecurity course takes just a few hours of study each week. It’s up to you to choose when you put these hours in, meaning you can continue learning without interrupting your daily life.
