Cyber Security and Crypto, quite possibly, are two of the most looked at sectors when it comes to the Information Technology world. One predicted to be $170 billion industry by 2020 while the other reached the all-time-high of above $800 billion back in 2017.
Meaning: Although the crypto market is low right now, chances are the combined value of both markets, or crypto alone, can surpass a $1 trillion mark in the future, and you might not want to be shocked when it happens.
And to avoid that “Shock” situation, this article will help. Today, we are going to discuss a startup-cum-’news blog’ namely Hackerpost.
