Hi Varun,
DeleteGreat! You have captured all sort of right qualification to move on and I don't see any negative point as far as your qualification is concerned.
Actually Cyber sector give preference to people who are qualified and have experience to convert trends into results. Therefore, diploma of cyber law will give you entry into field but ultimate potential will be measured by performance.
Don't worry, this field will offer you more than your expectations. But polish your knowledge everyday and gain practical knowledge rather than formality to get a diploma.
Best of luck.
