Finding the Right Fit
A programmer solves problems
by manipulating computer
code
IT Security specialist make
things, write code, and solve
problems
A developer solves problems
and creates things
(performance, maintainability,
scale, robustness, and security)
What IT Security/hackers, programmers, and developers all have
in common is that they solve problems using code.
Finding the Right Fit
IT Security Computer Programming
auditing security
systems
setting up firewalls
analyzing networks
reporting on data
