Reverse Engineers can combat Cyber Terrorism, says National Security Database

 

National Security Database, in association with Ground Zero Summit 2013, has organized a Seminar on Reverse Engineering in New Delhi to identify and create the need for the most credible and valuable Information Security professionals in India, especially in Reverse Engineering. The Reverse Engineering is expected to protect the National Critical Infrastructure and economy of the country.
 
The Seminar touched upon the growing need of Reverse Engineers in the country to counter cyber-attacks and piracy. As the $100-billion information technology industry seeks to chart a new course by fostering software product companies, Reverse Engineering to become a promising field for jobs in the IT and software development sector.

Rajshekar Murthy, Director, National Security Database, said, Hacking has become a growing threat to the Indian IT industry. Some recent data theft cases by hackers has made India's $100-billion IT industry a primary target. The acute shortage of Reverse Engineering professionals will further hit the IT industry and the economic loss will grow exponentially due to piracy and insecure coding.

National Security Database has developed intensive and in-depth Reverse Engineering Boot-camps offered by Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC) approved partners. The programme will help engineers to understand different aspects of application security, learn anti-cracking techniques and to create secure code for internal use that cannot be easily hacked. Through these programmes, the engineers can also learn different approaches for Reverse Engineering and Application to get a strong foundation in dealing with new Malwares and gain expertise to analyze it.
