- How would you protect our company’s data from hackers?
- Could you tell me three ways you would improve our cyber-security?
- What qualifications and or certification do you have to work in IT Security?
- What can you tell me about encryption algorithms?
- Can you tell me what the security triad is?
These questions are very important; by asking these questions I’m getting information on how they work and what their abilities are. I can figure out if they see themselves working for the company for the long term or for a short period of time. Some of the basic responses I would like to hear is that they have IT training, I’d like to go into detail into how much training they have and on what. I would like to hear how they could ensure that our company’s valuable information can only be used, changed, and seen by the correct and appropriate people. I would like to see if their skills are the best that our company can pay for. I would like to see them have an interest in the job that is being interviewed for but also see if they could move up within the company.
