How can I pursue ethical hacking course? Should I discontinue Bachelor's in mass communication and pursue ethical hacking course?

Hello Muthu, You should not get too fascinated with ethical hacker as they show in movies. Most of the institutes provide just a basic fancy course under the name of ethical hacking, just to attract students and earn more. I would rather recommend you to go for security specialist professionals. These jobs are highly payable and in high demand as most companies need them to protect their own data. These jobs work on the same logic that the best thief can protect the data in the best way. For the same, you can go to some reputed computer training institutes like NIIT, etc. You can go for Java courses followed by networking courses and CCNA/CCNB (CISCO) courses. After this, you can also opt for CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker) certification courses, if you wish to. Ensure you do these courses alongside a degree course for better outcome. I hope I have been able to answer your queries to your satisfaction. If so, kindly upvote this answer. If you've any further questions, kindly revert.

You shouldn't discontinue mass communication as of now, considering that you are already a final year student. You can probably get yourself enrolled in ethical hacking course simultaneously. Once you'll be a graduate then you can probably decide whether you wish to pursue mass communication further or get into ethical hacking.
