CISCO offers five levels of network certification: Entry, Associate, Professional, Expert and Architect, the highest level of accreditation within the Cisco Career Certification programme. CCENT and the CCT certifications are entry level certifications and serve as starting points for individuals interested in starting a career as a networking professional. CCNA is a Cisco Certified Network Associate awarded by Cisco. Obtaining a CCNA certification involves enrolling in a CCNA course and undergoing CCNA training, which will certify a candidates knowledge on resolving institutional networking issues such as smarter troubleshooting, enhancing customer service and improving internal communication using Ciscos proven techniques. Thank you.

CCNA is networking certifications and C-DAC offers multiple Post graduate and degree courses in the field of IT. C-DAC, ACTS offers Post Graduate Diploma courses related to advanced computing and specialised domain areas such as VLSI, Embedded, Healthcare, Geoinformatics, Natural Language Processing, Wireless, Mobile, IT Security and SCADA. C-DACs domain expertise and experience has been instrumental in designing and developing these specialised courses. These Diploma courses are offered through the C-DAC Training centers and Authorized Training Centers situated in various states of India. CCNA is a Cisco Certified Network Associate awarded by Cisco. Obtaining a CCNA certification involves enrolling in a CCNA course and undergoing CCNA training, which will certify candidates knowledge on resolving institutional networking issues such as smarter troubleshooting, enhancing customer service and improving internal communication using Ciscos proven techniques. Generally, a CCNA certified professional could seek employment as a network administrator. These positions include coordinating with computer systems, maintaining networks, troubleshooting network and hardware issues. C-DAC courses are higher qualification then CCNA certification. If you are an engineering graduate, you may prefer C-DAC PG Diploma over CCNA. Thank you,. .

Everything is connected with the computers. So, its important to understand the networking and due to its worldwide applicability, learning security is also must. Keeping these facts in mind, the various big technology companies like IBM, HCL, Oracle and Wipro are spending huge amount on networking and security infrastructure. Hence, the demand of networking engineer is increasing and will increase in the near future. In India, you can learn the networking hardware and security' by: (#) Professionals Degree course - You can earn a Bachelors degree. BCA and B.Sc. In hardware and networking are provided by many universities across the country. However, various diplomas are also available in this course. (#) Diplomas like: Diploma in Computer Hardware Maintenance, Advanced Diploma in Computer Hardware Maintenance and Networking, Diploma in computer Hardware and Networking and Diploma in Computer Networking Technology (DCNT). Thank you.

Some universities have a signal processing course in M.Sc Physics. M.Tech in Signal Processing is a 2-year postgraduate course, designed for successful graduates of B.Tech ECE/Electronics or M.Sc. Physics students he programme essentially involves an advanced analysis, study, interpretation, and concepts of manipulation of signals. The eligibility criteria to seek admission in M.Tech Signal Processing is that the candidate must have qualified for the award of Bachelors degree in Engineering / Technology from a recognised University or Institute in Electrical/Electronics and Communication / Telecommunications Engineering (ECE), Telecommunications Engineering (T), Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE), Instrumentation (IN) with minimum 60% marks and have qualified and have a valid score in Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering GATE in ECE. Thank you.

Salary of engineers in Telecom and Wireless industry ranges from 2-3 LPA at entry level to 10-12 LPA as a telecom engineer or VLSI engineer in any mobile manufacturing firm. Qualifications required are Bachelor's or Masters (M.Tech / M.Sc. Or Ph.D. is also preferred. Thank you.

Including virtual computer hardware platforms, storage devices, and computer network resources. Virtualization can increase IT agility, flexibility and scalability while creating significant cost savings. Workloads get deployed faster, performance and availability increases and operations become automated, resulting in IT that's simpler to manage and less costly to own and operate. There is no defined perquisite to learn Virtualization Java. It will be good that before proceeding with learning of virtualization aspirant should have at least basic understanding and experience of computer hardware, systems administration, networking, internet, mobile computing and Database, etc. Companies are resorting to virtualisation to increase efficiency and cost saving. Large IT consulting firms such as IBM, Himachal Pradesh-Dell, etc. Have good demand for virtualisation experts beside captive data centers of large business firms. Lot of Indian IT majors also require virtualisation consultants. If you are in the field of systems administrators virtualisation expertise can help in your career growth and better salary and perks. Thank you.

If you take FPGA used for implementing DSP applications, you need knowledge of DSP algorithms. But the challenge is more towards designing the hardware than writing algorithms for filters which is not tough as there is a lot of references already available. Most of the engineering jobs related to DSP do not actually require that much mathematics which is generally taught in the curriculum. There is more expectation of writing C/MATLAB synthesized codes. So yes, to an extent the challenges seem to be more in RF for communications or designing chips for it. However, if you pick up Machine learning and focus more on algorithms, then your spectrum as a DSP engineer will widen drastically. Also, there is scope for DSP in communications but the current trend is not good for these companies. Thank you.

The role of ethical hackers is to check the vulnerability of the system's software from foreign attack. 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. These types of hacking is said to be ethical because this hacking is done by the consent of owners to check its intrinsic and extrinsic security. According to the report by CNBC, India requires more than 150,000 ethical hackers, but currently, India is able to produce 25000 -30,000 only. Since today's unethical hackers are more qualified and trained, you also must have to be skilled to cope with them. An ethical hacker also should have a basic understanding of TCP/IP protocols such as SMTP, ICMP and HTTP. To conclude, there is huge demand and need of Skilled Ethical hackers in India. Provided you must have to choose your success path wisely. Thank you.
