Hi,

I'm studying Computer Science and Business at the moment. Later on I
would like to work in IT-Security for a company or something like
that. Now I wanted to ask, how I could prepare myself the best way,
during my studys...Do you have any advices for me? Thanks a lot!

Greetings

One way of getting experience and demonstrating competence without
actually getting a job would be to contribute to an open source project.
 You don't have to be a programmer, you can do testing, documentation,
etc.

HTH,

Nick
