After graduating with a BSEE I worked in avionics. In school I learned that a server admin is the Security Engineer. Servers that were not properly configured were compromised; it was merely a matter of time. Those were different times. You might find work as an admin after breaking in somewhere; doing so was legal and generally helpful.
