Im currently finishing a year of training in the networking and PC trouble shooting fields. On inspecting the job markets I find varly good action in both fields but I wonder with the advent of P&P and self diagnostics if the market is gong to soften and the $$ for this type of work go down. This is leading me down the raod to get into security be it online, network, personal PC or mabe software applications Im wondering if anyone else sees this as a trend to follow or if they have had experiences in this field.

Check my comments posted titled BTDT in the "Networking (where do you start)" discussion. I feel (know) this is an under staffed area which is going to be in demand for some time.
Especially within the financial community. Every financial institution is scrambling to have an internet presence and MUST meet federal requirements of security and privacy (by July of 2001). Therefore, they must comply and to do so they either must outsource or go inhouse. They are leary of outsourceing because of the loss of control and the audit requirements.

Check it out, this is a little known area to the masses.

Good luck!
