How to get an entry level cryptography job?

The qualifications that you need to get an entry-level cryptography job include a degree and mathematical skills. Cryptographers and security specialists can start on their career path by earning a bachelor’s degree in math, statistics, computer science, or a related field. You can also pursue a postgraduate degree in cryptography or applied math. If you work for a government agency or a government contractor, you may need to obtain a security clearance, but it is common for employers to sponsor you for this clearance. All cryptography jobs require an extensive background check. The EC-Council offers a Certified Encryption Specialist (CES) accreditation.
