Question by nikepolamalu: what’s a excellent entry level security certification for a college student?
I’m a sophomore in college and I’m majoring in Finance and minoring in Information Technology. I’m hoping to find bank job that focuses on IT down the road. I know that CISSP requires experience (that i dont have) and it is geared towards professionals. Is a compTIA security+ a excellent cert. for someone like me?
