A Melodic Miner posted:A few of my close friends work in digital forensics/infosec and tell me that there's an large amount of money and a dire shortage of qualified people, but I have no real idea how to approach breaking into that field (Are certifications enough? Do I need to go back to school? Do programs even exist?). I left graduate school relatively recently and went into IT security after about a year of working. Your friends in infosec probably have some good ideas on how to get into their industry. Based on my the people I've met, I'd go for certifications over going back to school. I've met a lot of people working in IT security who have computer scienc-y degrees, and plenty of people with degrees in other fields. My degrees are in math. There is an IT thread which would probably give you more well-rounded advice on the best way to go about it. My company has an IT security component, so I found out what certifications they liked, passed the exam for one, was able to use that fact to get an internal transfer+promotion.
