Popis: | The risks of information security threats in conditions of rapidly increasing use of information and communication technologies in society, economy and public administration have led to the need for a significant increase of information reliability. The efficient education for international career building of young engineers in the technical aspects of Cyber security is discussed in this article. The mission of such engineers is the development of technical assets, mechanisms, electronic devices and systems, as well as integration legacy solutions and reengineering of systems, taking into account protection of information assets. It has become one of the fastest growing information technology in industries today, mainly due to two trends: (1) exponential growth of data from business systems and security sensors to protect this business; (2) lack of qualified cyber security staff to analyze and respond to incidents related to these data. The market analysis on the international and national levels, chows, that the number of vacancies in area is growing, for example the number of specialists required by CERT.LV only is around 200, and they estimate that the number of employees required by private companies is several hundreds on national level. Developed countries laws require companies to designate a qualified person responsible for IT security issues and the development and maintenance of technological solutions. The task of a cyber security specialist in companies and different organizations is to manage security solutions, consult users and provide expertise not only engineering background, but also background in IT security issues. Implementation of these tasks requires a wide range of multidisciplinary knowledge, including computer networking, software, integrated systems, critical infrastructure security and security management. |
