Hey there
I am really into the computer security scene. I have followed the latest zero-days and conferences(defcon, blackhat) and frequently use many security tools. So much so that I am seriously considering a degree in security. Bearing in mind that I am in the UK so the education is slightly different, could you tell me about your time studying computer security? Do you need a lot of maths? is the workload difficult? perhaps most importantly, do you enjoy it? is it what it lives up to.
Furthermore, would you say that security is a dead field? From what i've heard it is very much alive and growing exponentially as security is being considered as a serious threat by many organisations. If I do go into security, it would be great to get a job at a security company. Is this realistic?
Hope you reply soon.
Take care
