Hello Aarsuhi,
Welcome to career guide.com
Thanks for writing us and approaching us with your career query.

Thats the interesting question you have. My question is why did you select CA course if you have an interest in Ethical Hacking? Why you didnt go with the ethical hacking career?

The course that you have been pursuing currently deals with the commerce where as the ethical hacking course is completely related to Science and IT.

You have not mentioned from which stream you have completed your 12th. In order to become an ethical hacker one needs to have completed his 12th from science stream with subjects as maths and physics. After 12th science one needs to have a graudation or diploma in IT ,Computer Science or related fields. After successfully completing the graduation one can apply for the Ethical Hacking course and on its completion can work as ethical hacker.

The scope for ethical hacker is very wide in the IT companies like Wipro,Infosys,TCS ,Accenture,DELL,Google,IBM etc. Due to the increasing rate of cyber crime there has been a great demand and scope for the ethical hackers.The work of the Ethical Hackers is to protect the computer systems from getting hacked and also security from any threat. The demand is very high for the ethical hackers in the market.

The salary of the ethical hackers starts around form 3 lakh per annum.

Their is also a great demand for the hackers in Foreign countries too.

I would suggest you to go with the career guide.com career assessment to get a clear picture which career suits you better.

I hope you find this information relevant and useful.

Feel free to get in touch again for further career queries.

Wish you Good Luck

Thank You

Hi Aarushi,

My question to you here is why do you wish to pursue so many courses at one time????
Where exactly are you headed towards???

Please note that right now in terms of future, please focus on just one thing and give it your complete dedication.

You have chosen CA and M.Com definitely for a reason, then why all of a sudden from the Financial background would you like to shift to the IT / Technical background.

Though ethical hacking course is open to any individual interested in security, but definitely a background in IT would be helpful. Though the course would cover up elements of IT too.

Ethical hacking as the name suggests is the means to protect the system from intruders, by uing a lot of algorithms and computer coding and languages.
A necessity for big business tycoons and of course IT firms.

As such one of the best and renowned Institutes for Ethical hacking is of Ankit Fadia.
Check: www.ankitfadia.in
There are online courses available, but I would suggests doing a course from a recognised Institute by means of practical training than learning from the virtual medium.

Check the following Institutes:

• http://www.quickstart.com
• www.lucideus.com
• http://www.codecnetworks.com/
• http://delhitrainingcourses.com/learn-ethical-hacking.htm

But still Aarushi my end advise would be focus n one thing at a time, than trying to lay your hands on everything.
Anyways, CA requires a full time focus, so will you get time for Ethical Hacking course then??

Hope this helps.
Wish you good luck....

Actually i am interested in Science but some problem i have taken commerce in class 12th but right now i wanna leave CA .

Hi Aarushi,

Really sorry to hear that.

But please note that, such circumstances do arise and makes us stronger everytime we face such issues in future.
Need not worry.
Now science is a question of the past. I would request you to completely forget what you could not achieve and focus on what lies ahead in front of you.

I would request you not to give up CA, as it is one of the highest degree in Finance one can achieve and it has a lot of recognition.
Though I would recommend, you to first try studying CA, wholeheartedly, giving it your complete effort and still if you are unhappy or unable to clear then you can quit.

In-case if you have made your mind to quit CA, and pursue Ethical Hacking, then I would strongly recommend, you to pursue IT certification curses, especially learning computer languages and knowing technical terminology. This would help yu get a better understanding of the course and keep you interested too.

Hope this helps.
Do write back in case of any other clarification.

Wish you god luck...

I need more suggestion so plzzz careerguide suggest me

Hello Aarushi,
Thanks for writing us back.

It happens many a times due to various inevitable circumstances we need to certain decisions of which we are not into favour. Aarushi clearly speaking as you have completed your 12th from commerce their is no ways that you can go for the ethical hacking course. Even if you had completed your 12th from science that would have given you a way to go with the science graduation as discussed earlier.
Even if you plan to go back to science and complete it that will be very time consuming and also finance consuming .

If you are finding CA very difficult to go with than you can give a thought to other courses either in the same field i.e finance or other option you have is you can go with some of the courses related to computers like BCA. For BCA you should have studied Maths subject in your class 12th. And after BCA can opt for MCA. Whereas you can also go with courses like MBA in IT or MCM course after completing your graduation degree.

Just give a thought whether you wish to leave CA or wish to continue the same or can explore other courses from commerce stream.

And my colleague's advice Mrs. Meghna is right instead of going with virtual learning go for the practical learning.

Again i would like to mention that try to take the Career Guide.com's Career Assessment to plot the right career option for you. This will give us a clear idea where your area of interest lies.You can also take the counselling session with any of the career counsellor from the panel to help you to chalk your career graph for future.

For any further career queries or needs an information on any of the course do write us back.

Awaiting to hear from you.

Thank you
