Hi Irfan,
Those who have an educational background in computer Science or IT or computer engineering can enter the field of ethical hacking. They must know programming languages like C, C+, Python, Ruby etc. The understanding of widely used operating systems like the various versions of Windows, Linux and Firefox etc. Is also an important part of your knowledge base. Some of the known certifications in Ethical Hacking are CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) and CHFI ( Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator) offered by EC Council; CCNA Security (Cisco Certified Network Associate Security); scope's SCNS (Security Certified Network Specialist) & SCNP (Security Certified Network Professional); CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) offered by Intl Information System Security Certification Consortium and many more.

Hi Yesha,
In continuation to your other query, I first want to ask you whether you really are inclined towards Cyber security or it is because of lack of job opportunity that you want to pursue the course? If the latter is the answer, then I must tell you that there are n number of companies that have a strong IP team, For eg: Mastercard in Pune has a strong IP Legal team and it is looking for leads as well. Also, Law firms need associates from time to time in their IP team. You can personally visit the lawfirms or apply through LinkedIn. I understand it's October already and panic starts to creep in about finding a job. But don't take up just any other job in haste and please use the LLM wisely.
