Why Professional Certifications?

In today’s World of Cybersecurity, employers are seeking a triad in 网络安全 education: degree, 认证, and real-world-experience. Indiana State University's Cybercrime degree is built around this concept. ISC2, the world's leading 网络安全 professional organization state in their 2020 Cybersecurity Workforce Study state that 网络安全 认证s are essential in addition to your 网络安全 degree because they validate your knowledge and expertise in a world where technology changes and industry trends emerge all the time1 . 前年, the world's leading tech association and unparalleled 认证 program, states that a student with a 认证 is the one that is going to get hired if they both have a 网络安全 degree and one has no 认证s and will receive a higher starting salary than those with any 认证s. 前年 research shows that students who are hired and have 网络安全 认证s are more confident, 更有见识, reach job proficiency quicker, are more reliable and perform at a higher level2.

除了, to professional vendor neutral 网络安全 认证s, students learn from two of the industry leading digital forensics software, Magnet Forensics Axiom Cyber and Paraben E:3 Universal. In doing so the class prepares them for Magnet Certified Forensic Examiner (MCFE) and Paraben Certified Computer Operator (P2CO) and Mobile Operator (DSMO)
