Firewalls, anti-virus programs, and encryption are all part of our everyday lives. If you use mobile banking, pay your credit card online, or buy anything on eBay you have most likely used an app or software designed by a cyber security engineer. The goal of a cyber security engineer is to make sure that computer networks stay as secure as possible. In the event of an attack, cyber security engineers work to recover lost data and provide assistance in tracking down the cyber-criminals. Cyber security engineers work with network administrators, system analysts, and other IT professionals to create networks that organizations and individuals alike can use safely and securely.
