    What You Need to Know About a Network Security Career

    By Anistar Technologies | Candidates, Careers, Employee Resources, Security | Comments are Closed | 23 July, 2019 | 1

    You may have heard enough about networking and cyber security jobs in recent years to get you interested in what they entail. The practice of network security involves implementing preventative measures to protect an organization’s infrastructure from being misused, modified improperly, destroyed, compromised and more. The overall goal is to create a secure environment and be proactive in addressing any possible vulnerabilities. If this sounds interesting to you, then you may be a good fit for a network security career.

    Network Security Experts Are In High Demand

    Companies are always looking for experts to fill their IT networking jobs. These are some of the most demanding jobs in the technology and cyber security industries, and employers are willing to pay top dollar for the most qualified experts. As cyber security continues to be a focus worldwide, there’s not expected to be a shortage of networking and cyber security jobs any time soon.

    Job Responsibilities For A Network Security Professional

    Every company has different needs when it comes to network security experts. As a network security engineer, your job responsibility will likely be to build entire security systems around an infrastructure. On the other hand, if your skills are more in analytics, then you could be a network security analyst. This position involves crunching numbers and analyzing data to determine holes and vulnerabilities in systems and networks. When you look at job descriptions for different companies, you may notice there are variances among them. Some companies want to hire an engineer and an analyst separately, while others would prefer to hire one expert to fill both roles. 

    Professionals Are Rewarded For Their Expertise

    Professionals with network security jobs are very well compensated for their skills and expertise. The median salary for a network security expert is around $80,000 annually, while some of the highest paying jobs could top out at around $150,000 annually. With the right mix of experience, education and a willingness to go above and beyond normal job duties, you can work your way up to becoming a valued expert and be rewarded accordingly.

    At Anistar Technologies, we thoroughly evaluate the skills, experience and desires of job candidates to find the right fit for them. There are plenty of network security jobs available, but not everyone qualifies for them. We are here to expedite your job search by taking a lot of the work and research out of your hands. We can narrow down your list of options based on your desires and the company’s requirements to create a perfect fit for both parties. If you’re interested at all in beginning a network security career, contact us today to see how we can help you get started.
