  • CYBER SECURITY:
    • A specialized course in the IT field , therefore it is included as a category under CS. It aims to provide detailed information about computer operating systems, networks and also about the complete details behind cyber attacks and a way to reduce it.
    • This course focuses on providing a way to stop the increasing cyber crimes, thus main work is to protect the sensitive data which is used while online transactions .
    • This field has a wide opportunity to rise in future, since with increasing digitalization, threats increase as well.

Hello there

Firstly if I tell you about the difference between cybersecurity and data science then cyber security is to protect and secure data and the networks from any of the other unauthorised access which is not permitted whereas data science follows to extract valuable insights by making processing of large amount of big data into specialised and more organised data sets.

Information science which is an interdisciplinary field mainly concerned with the collection,  manipulation, storage and protection of information. The candidate usually use their information in the areas such as knowledge management, data management and interaction design with different-different companies and organisations.

Comparing these three that which will Boom the market in the upcoming years is very difficult. But somehow you will be finding data science more growing as compared to the cybersecurity and information Sciences in terms of job prospectus. But if you are well known in any of the field then you can make your career very bright as all the three are very demanded.

I hope it helps you!

Thank you!
