Top Cyber Security Certifications for 2017

Certifications are big business in many industries but especially in the Information Technology sector. In speaking with seasoned IT professionals, I’ve found that popular certifications one year tend to lose their value the next. One such IT professional told me recently that Microsoft Certifications were extremely valuable ten, fifteen years ago. In 2017, I, personally, do not know one person seeking a Microsoft certification. I do, however, know many people seeking some form of cyber security certification and since the ITACS course is designed to prep for the CISA or CISSP, it is good to see those two certifications at the top of this list. While these certifications could lose their popularity in the not so distant future (like a Microsoft Specialist Certification), it’s good to see that for now they are highly reputable.
