To be a IT security professional...

Having a degree and some certification is far away from being qualified to become to an IT security professional. These are some point below you need to have:
  • A skeleton-free closet. No felonies or convictions on charges that could be considered a breach of trust, and particularly no history of hacking or other computer crimes.

  • An analytical mind that can recognize and rate risks and threats.

  • A solid understanding of IT.

  • A well-rounded knowledge of business processes.

  • The ability to negotiate, sell your ideas on security and get people on board.

  • A passion for security.

  • A can-do attitude.
  • And lastly, a careful mind which always alert on things happening around
