Advancement Prospects
Information security analysts advance by receiving pay raises and taking on supervisory duties, or by becoming computer and information system managers, chief security officers, chief technology officers, chief information security officers, or other types of executives at their companies or organizations. Those who are employed by small companies can advance by moving to larger firms to manage more employees, oversee larger security budgets, and tackle more complicated security threats. Others become information security consultants or college professors.
