    Ethical hackers are mainly Penetration Testers who find security issues in the system. Cyber Security is much bigger domain and covers a lot of subjects including penetration testing. CSSRL provides various training programme in cyber security domain. Yes you are eligible for some courses. Depending on the program chosen you can check the eligibility criteria

    Hi,
    The qualification required for ethical hacking is not fixed as the working area is multi-dimensional. A B.Sc in IT or CS, or B.Tech in CS/ IT is the minimum academic level to be ethical hacker with programming knowledge of one or two languages is fine. Networking knowledge is required.
    Following courses are available:
    1) PG Diploma in information security: DOEACC – Calicut.
    2) CCNA Security – CISCO.
    3) Institute of Information Securiety – CISSP.
    4) University of Madras offers M.Tech in information security.
    All the best.
