Ethical Hacking

Have you guys heard anything about Ethical Hacking?

wiki didn't provide a whole lot of help, but you can find more info through the usual sources. I'm majoring in computer science, and I've heard a lot about how important security is. I'm only a freshman, but down the line I hope to get my masters, and I think the best path to success is focusing on security.

Is security a safe route for employment? I'm good at math and will probably pick up a mathematics minor along the way. What do you guys know about Security Jobs in Computer Science?

>Is security a safe route for employment
yes

Course is a joke. Educate yourself.

``Certified Script Kiddie'' would be a more suitable name.

If you're actually interested in computer security (which is very different from just wanting a safe employment), that's a valid specialization, but I would recommend staying clear of bullshit like this `certification'.
