Information Security Analyst

Product Description A guide to what an information security analyst does and how to become one. From School Library Journal Gr 6-9-With their focus on science, technology, engineering and math careers, these titles will help kids see the value in these topics and maybe even encourage them to sit up and pay more attention in class. After covering basic information, such as facts about equipment, work schedules, common technology used, safety gear and day-to-day activities, each book provides an overview of specific job requirements and prospects. Skills (e.g., critical-thinking talent or being cool with heights), personality traits, and physical attributes are discussed as well as growth potential in the field and salary and educational specifications. The various fields are presented in an honest way: kids are shown that even the most glamorous sounding jobs include some routine tasks, such as writing reports or preparing budgets. Unremarkable color photos and diagrams illustrate the pages. Historical information and biographical sketches make clear how rapidly our world is changing. Solid career books for the STEM-minded. α(c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
