What is the scope of CEH and CCNA courses? I am pursuing BCA (final semester).

Hello Nisha, In India, companies like Wipro, Infosys and IBM are interested in employing ethical hackers to secure their own data. Moreover, the salaries are higher than other areas of IT. According to Nasscom, India will require at least 77,000 ethical hackers compared to the present figure of 15,000. 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. 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. I hope it will help. If so, kindly up vote this answer. If you've any further questions, kindly revert.
