How do I become computer security technician?

I am senior in high school, and studying Information Technology. I am going to take Comptia A+ exam somewhere in May. One part of I.T that I want to be is either security or network, but I think I want to be more little with security.

find info about colleges or universities near to you and they may have information about what they offer you to study.. you will find something that way
hope it helps (:

Find a college that has a degree program for this. Hack into their computer, make it look like you went their and graduated. Find a site that sells counterfeit diplomas on the net

dude
study networking its better
because the internet is getting into more peoples house
and if you study security ..you’ll be blamed for any data loss

You can speak to your school counselor or stop by your local library…they may have many resources available such as books, DVDs, website, pamphlets, and etc. to help you out with these questions

Also you can try to contact some local company that specializes in computer security and networking and etc.…they probably could give you good advice and information on how to become a computer security tech

There are also many online forums for computer security, networking and etc.….you can ask them for any advice and information

Computer security forum

You can also contact your local, state, or the Federal Department of Education, consumer protection agency, and etc. to see if they have any information, resources, advice, and etc. to help you out with this matter and situation

They may have information for tutoring, financial aid, school accreditation and etc.

You should also check out your local colleges or universities to see if they offer any courses or classes for that particular career

For example there are many community (2 year) colleges that offer Associate’s Degrees or Certificates in computer networking, repair and etc.

Here is a list of community colleges in the US that you can contact to get more information

Good luck with your A+ test and I hope this will help!

Mitsu…Security and Network are closely intertwined although the testing for the certifications are separate. Understanding network setups aka topologies; Using Servers, understanding Routers & Switches (whether it is Cisco or Juniper); System Threats & Risks/Vulnerabilities & Attacks; Encryption; Authentication and don’t forget Virtualization.

Security is the way to go. Right now the use of Cloud technology is facing issues of security that keep some company’s at a distance from an eminent business structure. And young ppl like yourself may be the innovator that pushes the Cloud technology to meet those expectations. So keep your focus on security.

Good Luck on your A+ Exam

hi
Network security will be growing more, because bussinesses need network security professional s.
if you want to be network professional you need to take Network +, then Security +, and then start working on CISCO certifications

Network and network security are mostly associeted with Cisco certifications. Keep it mind that Certifications without business experience won’t meant a penny.
The second link is great security forum.
