Question

IT education

Tell me in what direction are moving in the field of information security. I entered the first year of the master's program, I want to write various articles, program, etc., etc., then connect my master's thesis with this, and then go to graduate school. You need a base, where to start. Tell me the current trends, so to speak, in the field of information security, what topics are relevant now?

Answer 1

Pentest?

Answer 2

Cryptography, cloud computing threats and methods of their protection, any offal associated with the protection of information on mobile platforms.

Answer 3

I agree with Max , look towards SIEM, DLP, IPS. It would be better to have access to such systems and test knowledge in practice.
Testing web applications is relevant, although there is no such hype around them.
Even the courses will give only general knowledge. And then there was reading the documentation and practice, practice, practice...

Answer 4

Engage in IB should be what you are interested in. Nothing interesting - do nothing. I wonder how things are going - google.

Answer 5

read about SIEM. From a practical point of view, practical information security is a very interesting topic.
