Hello all,
I'm trying to find out what path I should take on becoming a security analyst.
Right now I have my associates degree as a microcomputer specialist from Elgin Community College and have transferred to Northeastern Illinois University to pursue my Bachelor's degree.
I've also enrolled in their computer science program with a concentration in computer security.
So my question is, what certifications will I need to get a job in a few years as a security analyst?
I'm working toward getting my CCNA and I'm wondering whether I should get the CompTIA Security + cert and then get a CCNP cert.
If anyone can shed some light on this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
