In fact, in recent years, the network environment is getting worse and worse. If you only read computer newspapers, computer enthusiasts and computer enthusiasts, you will see a lot of security incidents, hackers, Trojan horses, intrusions, apr spoofing and ddos attacks. . . . Information security, which we were all concerned about a few years ago, is becoming more and more important now, especially for a company, there is no relevant personnel to deal with such problems. It is conceivable how to ensure its normal operation and its secret security. . . .
Therefore, Wuhan University took the lead in setting up information security specialty in China. At present, there are not many schools offering information security majors, and there are more than 50 schools nationwide, because the Ministry of Education has strict control over this aspect. Information security may become a hacker. . . . Therefore, schools should focus on our ideological education, and must file with the Ministry of Public Security before graduation. . . . Information security is a new major, which has not been established for a long time in colleges and universities across the country. The earliest Wuhan University is only eight years old. Now there is only one similar major in the United States, but there is no special information security. In this respect, China is ahead.
The less secure the network, the easier it is for people with information security to find jobs. The network was safe that day, and it was time for our career. . . .
Anyway, there is a great demand in all aspects of society, but there is one thing: learn well. Otherwise, it is no different from ordinary computers.
It's up to you. If you are not interested, don't apply. Like my class, some people have opinions at home and are not interested, and some can't change their majors. . . . . .
Let's write down some introductions of our major (other institutions may be different)
Information security courses: programming basics, discrete mathematics, algorithms and data structures, cryptography (including information security mathematics), operating system, computer network, network security, database system principles, intrusion detection and security protection, civil aviation introduction to information systems, etc. Professional direction is divided into civil aviation information security, network security technology and management. It mainly offers civil aviation information security management, data storage and storage security (including equipment security), router and firewall technology, network fault diagnosis, network management and other courses. Specialized elective courses: computer virus analysis and prevention, information hiding technology, Web technology (including Web security), legal basis of information security, etc. Professional practice includes civil aviation cognitive practice and network information security comprehensive practice. Lecture on information security technology development and civil aviation integrated information platform. Training objectives: This major mainly cultivates engineering application-oriented information security professionals with high political quality, solid mathematical foundation, theoretical foundation of information security, knowledge of network and information security management, good scientific literacy, familiarity with the application of information security technology in civil aviation and social fields, good professional ethics, humanistic literacy and innovative spirit, wide knowledge, high level of foreign language application and strong practical ability. This major can award a bachelor's degree in engineering. Excellent students can continue to study for a master's degree in this major or related interdisciplinary subjects.

Peer-to-peer job hunting for information security majors
Maintaining network information security requires professionals in the workplace.
Maintaining network information security requires professionals. Generally speaking, there are three main types.
1. Cyber Police
Network police is a comprehensive practical police who takes network technology as the main means and integrates crime fighting, crime management and crime prevention. In addition to detecting cases, it is also responsible for public information monitoring, participating in the special clean-up and rectification of harmful information on the Internet, coordinating relevant departments and websites to delete harmful information, and strengthening the construction of public security science and technology. The main job of network police every day is to search online, manage internet cafes, retrieve harmful information such as obscenity and reaction on the internet, and investigate and deal with cyber crimes according to clues.
2. Anti-virus engineer
The increasingly serious information security problem reflects the lack of information security technicians, and professional anti-virus engineers are blank in the IT talent structure. Anti-virus engineers need to know network knowledge, host operation, application system knowledge, data inventory knowledge, all kinds of special instruments and meters knowledge, security detection and monitoring software knowledge, scanning and anti-hacking software knowledge. From a certain point of view, anti-virus engineers are the most powerful patron saint against network hidden dangers.
3. Information Security Officer
In China, red has specific values: justice, morality, progress, strength and so on. Honker is the patron saint of the Internet with these qualities. They are computer enthusiasts who are diametrically opposed to hackers. They are keen to study the computer attack and defense technology, and constantly improve it, so as to better serve people. They play the role of network information security officers, and they are emerging network "leading soldiers".
Information security major is an interdisciplinary subject in computer, communication, mathematics, physics and other fields. It mainly studies science and technology to ensure information security. Professional courses cover the main knowledge points in the field of information security, focusing on cultivating senior professionals who can hold information security positions in the fields of computer, communication, electronic information, e-commerce, e-government, e-finance and military affairs. Students who have completed all the courses specified in the teaching plan and passed the examination can obtain a certificate of computer grade above intermediate level, a certificate of registered information security engineer, a certificate of registered information security manager and a certificate of registered information security auditor.
Statistics from the Ministry of Education show that at present, there are only about 2 100 information security talents with bachelor degree or above in China, and only about 1400 with college degree. There is a huge gap between social demand and talent supply, and the talent problem has become a bottleneck restricting the development of information security industry. Therefore, the information security major has the employment advantages of "hard qualification certificate", "few graduates", "many departments in need", "large employers" and "broad employment prospects".
The employment direction of information security major mainly includes information monitoring of public security bureau, websites, virus anti-virus companies and places involving information security, such as technical security maintenance departments of telecommunications and Netcom, and network security monitoring departments of important government departments.
