First, there is a lot of work.

There are many jobs for graduates majoring in network security, who can engage in related work in computer science and technology, information and communication, e-commerce, internet finance, e-government and other fields. You can also engage in information security product research and development, information system security analysis and design, information security technical consulting services, information security education, information security management and other work in government agencies and institutions, banking, insurance, securities and other financial institutions, telecommunications and media industries. In addition to information security engineer, information security consultant and system security manager, after taking the vocational qualification examination and obtaining the corresponding qualification certificate, the specific jobs can be such as communication engineer, software development engineer, software testing engineer and information system analyst.

Second, the employment field has broad prospects.

The "14th Five-Year Plan" clearly proposes to build a network power, comprehensively strengthen the network security system and capacity building, strengthen the construction of network civilization, and develop a positive and healthy network culture. This is the national network construction to a strategic height. With the development of a new generation of information technology, the network will go deeper into thousands of households and integrate into all aspects of social life and economic development. In the future, whether in emerging fields such as Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, or traditional computer science and technology, network security will always be an indispensable part, which plays a decisive role in the whole network security industry. It is precisely because of the great shortage of network security talents that 20 15 set up the major of cyberspace security, and set up postgraduate research directions in a large number of "double-first-class" construction universities and other key universities after its establishment. Therefore, the employment prospect of network security major is very broad, which is an out-and-out sunrise industry and one of the few computer jobs with long professional life.

In fact, everyone can feel the prospect of network security from real life. For example, in the past, corporate user data was leaked and everyone's ID card was stolen. What's more, all kinds of fraud are realized by stealing personal data. Then it will be an information age, and everyone will pay more attention to information security. In other words, enterprises will need more and more talents in this field, so network security is still very promising.

Third, there is more room for career development.

From the main courses of network security specialty, including program design and problem solving, data structure and algorithm, computer network, introduction to information security, cryptography, network security technology, computer virus and prevention, operating system curriculum design, information security curriculum design and so on. It can be seen that the network security major is highly technical and has distinctive professional characteristics, and it is one of the engineering majors that can learn real technology. Therefore, in terms of career development, in addition to many jobs, the network security major will be at the core of technology in the workplace because of its strong professionalism, and there is a lot of room for career development. Through hard work, you can rise from a basic technician to a technical manager with a certain level.

It can be said that network security has just become popular recently, and there is no special network security course in universities. The knowledge of network security is basically learned by ourselves or by participating in training institutions. Then the talent gap needed is still quite large. It's never too late to choose to start learning network security. The faster way is to take part in network security training institutions and learn knowledge systematically. Teachers can answer all kinds of learning questions.
