The global threat to core IT infrastructure by hackers has created the
conditions for security certification skills. When enterprise systems
networks are violated by way of internet service providers (ISP) or

result in failure. For professionals working in the IT administration and
engineering fields, the risk of violations to core infrastructure and data
has opened the door for new opportunities in IT security certification.

enterprise systems management.
