  Who Should Attend  
   
T.I.C.S.A. represents the base level of certification, and is designed for systems or network administrators who may be responsible for the security administration of systems or networks in an enterprise as an additional duty alongside their regular responsibilities. This first-tier certification recognizes that not all security professionals need to become security wizards to be engaged in serious and effective security work. This certification is designed for professionals with a background in computers and networking. The typical T.I.C.S.A. candidate will be working in a network or system administration position, or be moving into such a position upon entering the workforce after an undergraduate degree program. The candidate may already have a security-related position. It is also designed for those already knowledgeable in basic network security topics, as a stepping-stone to higher levels of certification
