"Is learning Cyber security is useful for earning money" - Of course, but only if you're going in that field. If a person desires to be a software developer, is there any need for him to learn Cyber Security?

Yes it indeed is helpful if you are really into it. But before you start, I would like to give you piece of advice, don't go for cyber security security if you are only after earning money, instead do what you are really passionate about. If your only desire is money, then you won't be able to succeed in whatever to intend to do. Anyway, enough of this, and have a look:- https://www.forbes.com/sites/stevemorgan/2016/01/02/one-million-cybersecurity-job-openings-in-2016/amp/

This one is a bit tricky. Usually it takes years of university study in computer science or software engineering and then years of applying those skills in day to day work to become really proficient in any area of cybersecurity. You could learn about networks and network security and help companies set up their firewalls and other IPS correctly. It is a reasonably narrow field I think. Another would be to get familiar with backup systems, particularly automated ones, and help your clients there. With the rise of crypto malware, this might be a great field to get started in. Backups do not prevent infections of course, but they make it possible (in theory) to just undo all damage caused by such an infection. Then there is prevention of ID0-T errors: If you like public talking and leading workshops, you might find that some companies need someone to teach their employees how to avoid getting infected with malware in the first place. Lastly, my speciality: Cryptography. Easier tasks with which you could make money would be setting up PGP and GPG to protect the content of your client’s emails. Or helping them get familiar with TrueCrypt or VeraCrypt to protect the data on USB-sticks and other removable drives that might get lost or stolen. You may earn Money But it is not easy to become cyber security Expert

Forensics is a pain in the arse. Cuz you need to make the evidence hold up in court and judges don’t know computers and lawyers are the devil. Pen testing is fun also basically you get paid to send phishing emails to companies and see if their stupid employees respond to them. There’s other stuff too but I’m just making a short comment.

With the increased amount of threats around today, good security practices is essential. Thus yes, even if it is not your specific field, you need to understand it.
