Ethical Hacking Alone May Not Be Enough for Cybersecurity Jobs
Learning ethical hacking may not be sufficient for a career in cybersecurity, experts warn.
The growing interest in cybersecurity has made ethical hacking a popular career choice among students. Short-term courses, certification programmes and online tutorials often introduce cybersecurity concepts, but may not provide a comprehensive understanding of the field.
Experts say that while ethical hacking is a valuable skill, it is just one aspect of cybersecurity, and professionals need to have a broader range of skills to be successful in the field.
