Marques Underwood INSS 391 Security and the Future With the transition of companies leaning towards advancing through the usage of big data, cybersecurity and the trends in technology are creating an increase in threats. The goal is to protect the databases and devices used at these companies before they are hacked and compromised for unwanted reasons. We’ll see the general concerns with security in the IT field, and steps that specific companies are taking to prevent and adopt to the landscape of the future in security. Devices are increasing at a rapid pace these days, meaning the more data is being expanding.
With the demands and high tempo of standing up the new cyber field, the U.S. Army will not only require technical experts, but strong proven leaders to mentor and guide the next generation of cyber professionals. I firmly believe that SSG Worley has shown that he is more than capable of being such a leader. As a result, I am pleased to recommend SSG Worley for the Warrant Officer Candidate Program and the 170A Cyber Operations
This includes finding evidence of criminal activity and regaining data from computer hard drives, even those that have been damaged or deleted. They analyze this data for clues and evidence, and may trace hacks or gauge the effects of malware on an information system. For many employers, applicants must have a bachelor’s degree in computer information systems or computer science. Some also require skills gained from an advanced degree program.

According to the Time.com article "Anne-Marie Slaughter: The National Security Issues No One is Talking About", Slaughter and Weingarten state that, "Cybersecurity is the intersection of technology and national security, the place where we define the policies, systems and practices that keep us and our information secure both on and offline" (Slaughter and Weingarten). This quote means that cybersecurity makes sure that users stay safe whether they are online or not. The jobs that cybersecurity have are web and software developer, database administrator, computer programmer, and many more. The purpose of these jobs is not just creating software, but also help businesses solve problems. There are not as many women who works in the cybersecurity

I immersed myself in the realm of Information Security during my junior year of high school. I took the Graphic Design technical pathway for three consecutive years, learning photography/photoshop and making my mark in the school community via the yearbook. I also learned how to handle technology such as cameras, Adobe software, and computers. This experience furthered my interest in how technology is blended to create complex products, and ignited my curiosity into how the various components of computers function. Next, I decided to sign up for Digital Technology, which covered
Let’s set the scene; you are in a plane, 30,000 feet in the air awaiting to get to Florida for your yearly vacation. You are enthusiastic to see your cousins for the first time, go swimming in the ocean, and ride some roller coasters. But, suddenly, a man stands up in the backseat with an AR-15 yelling a derogatory slur. Everybody freaks out, yelling and screaming for the flight attendants, but before you know it you hear a loud, deafening ring and see nothing but white. And it could have all been prevented at the airport security line.

Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, security in the United States has been significantly increased to prevent future terrorist attacks (Hayden, 2014). However, terrorist organizations have become decentralized and that has created many challenges for security agencies, particularly those agencies that make up the intelligence community (IC). The IC faces many challenges every day when they navigate the complex legal system in place to protect the privacy and civil rights of American citizens. The American people expects that the IC collects all of its information legally and that the information and intelligence products are shared in accordance with the rules and oversight that the Congress has put in place (Hayden, 2014). When the IC follows the established laws and rules, it helps ensure that the American people will continues to trust the IC.
Cybersecurity is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges facing the nation. Since the cyber threats to the government agencies have been increasing dramatically in the last few years, and cyber-attacks are becoming more common and more sophisticated, the need for cyber security professionals are in high demand and the jobs are expected to rise in the future. Regarding to the short term goals, I am planning to • Graduate from the master program in Information Assurance with an excellent GPA • Get training and certificates in different security topics such as Cisco Certified Network Security (CCNA Security), Linux Security, and penetration testing. • Get certificates in more advanced security levels, such as Certified Information Systems Security
