Need for Information Security Professionals in India
Security is a major concern in today’s world – not only in physical space but also for organizations to protect their critical data and information. Welcome to the rapidly growing field of information security. Twenty-five years ago, the information security profession was new and unheard. Many got into information security jobs when employers realized their business was at risk and they needed to protect their networks and assets. According to a survey done by IDC demand for Information Security professionals worldwide is likely to increase close to 170,000 by 2010. Latest CompTIA skills survey has listed Information Security as the No.1 skill in demand. The Indian Information Security market had grown at 48% (for FY08) which had outdone the overall IT market growth rate. In India, there has been a significant increase in identity thefts, cyber crimes, cyber terrorism, data breach, corporate espionage and therefore an immediate need of highly skilled security specialists to combat the latest and highly sophisticated threats.
