Exploring Careers in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics by Robert Osgood (Engli

Description: Exploring Careers in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics by Robert Osgood, Lucy Tsado Exploring Careers in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics serves as a career guide, providing information about education, certifications, and tools to help those making career decisions within the cybersecurity field. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Cybersecurity is a fairly new academic discipline. Therefore, most of the books written are mainly focused on classroom material and resources. To the best of our knowledge, there isnt a book that targets criminal justice and other nontechnical students from a career choice standpoint, while also providing needed guidance for a career in the field. Exploring Careers in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics will guide students in understanding the unique opportunity that a career in digital forensics and cybersecurity provides, and a plan for how to navigate the vast amount of resources like formal education, digital forensics/cybersecurity certifications and other career building tools available. While the cybersecurity field and profession are fully aware of the skills gap and the opportunities that are available, other nontraditional students are not. Human behavioral disciplines like criminal justice, psychology, law and some other disciplines like business, engineering and political science are not aware that their skills are also relevant and lacking in the digital forensics/cybersecurity field. This book will draw awareness and attract the attention of those nontechnical students and professionals that would not typically be involved in cybersecurity education. Moreover, with the continued rise in cyberattacks, the need for technological and non-technological skills in responding to digital behavior that is criminal, as well as the requirement to respond, investigate, gather and preserve evidence is growing. Careers in Cybersecurity, Cyber Defense and Digital Forensics will therefore be a useful tool for both students and those who are in the position in helping them make career decisions. Counselors and school administrators in both high school and undergraduate programs will benefit from the information in this book. Author Biography Lucy K.
