Ethical Hacking

Hello Nishant,
Ethical hacking requires an extensive knowledge of the working of Internet, networking protocols, programming and scripting languages and knowledge of networking devices. The syllabus for 10th standard will not have in-depth details required to understand ethical hacking. All those details will be covered up by the final year of any computer related graduation course.
Therefore, at the moment, understand the basics of computer, carry on with computers in your 12th standard and then opt for a computer related graduation course (B.E./B.Tech, B.Sc., BCA, BCS etc.) Once you are in the final year of graduation, you can opt for Certified Ethical Hacking course.

Ethical hacking, also known as penetration testing, intrusion testing or red teaming is used to find loopholes in an IT system and break into it. An ethical hacker is a computer and network expert who attacks a security system on behalf of its owners, seeking vulnerabilities that a malicious hacker could exploit. This work is ethical because it is performed to increase the safety of the computer systems, but only at the request of the company that owns the system and specifically to prevent others from attacking it. With the increasing use of the internet, it has become an essential part of IT security industry today.
With internet use mounting worldwide and cyber crimes increased as well, ethical hackers have become an integral workforce of any IT security industry today. However, currently, there is a huge gap between the demand and supply as far as ethical hackers are concerned. Hence, the scope for a fresher is lucrative not only in India but globally.
Various career prospects include profiles like Network Security System Administrator/Manager, Security Investigator, Network Security Engineer, Systems/Applications Security Executive, Web security Administrator/Manager, Security Auditor, Ethical Hacker, Data security specialist, Chief Information Security Officer, Computer Forensics Investigator, IT Security Administrator/Consultant/ Manager, Security Certified Programmer, Forensics Investigator, Security consultant, etc.
