Certification EXIN Ethical Hacking | CYBERSECURITY & CLOUD duration Part-time
Nowadays, Data Security is at the heart of every business and government. Therefore, understanding where threats come from and what are the physical, technical and administrative means to counter them is at the basis of any business strategy.
In today's highly interconnected world, IT security is an area that will continue to acquire an increasingly important role within company processes and the world of work. In this context, Ethical Hackers represent, by all means, the leading figures.
