Why Are you interested in Cybersecurity Technology ?

I am interested in Cybersecurity for several reasons. Firstly I feel that my characteristics fit well into the Job field of Cybersecurity. For example, I would like to believe that I am an analytical thinker that uses creative thinking in order to create solutions and solve problems. Next even though I am not as versed yet, I have always had a fascination with computers. I’ve also had a fascination with hacking. What has fascinated me with hacking was that people can miniplate computers through several means in order to deny services from others, steal information and do several other craft tasks. Learning how to hack and protect myself and others from hacking has piqued my interest in this field. My ambitions to go into the military has also led me to have an interest in this field because after I get out of the military I will be able to get a government job. Cybersecurity also has several subsets of different concentrations and careers that a person can go into. These varieties of jobs incorporate several different purposes and required  skills. This gives me the opportunity to figure out what I like and also grants me the opportunity to go into several different careers within Cyber Security. There is also the fact that technology and innovation is on the rise. This guarantees the growth and job market for Cybersecurity in the future. Cybersecurity is also a lucrative field if you want to make money. Several Cybersecurity jobs especially if you have certifications can pay 6 figures or more. Noting that the internet is world wide, and that there are more people with malicious intent makes this field practical. Being able to protects yourself, your friends, your neighbor, or even your nation digitally produces a sense of purpose while making the world a better place.
