Hi, I come from a business/sales background trying to get into IT. A friend suggested going for the CISA. Looking into this led me to your channel as well as UnixGuy. I’ve been studying for the CISA and GRC Mastery as well (GRC mastery is much more engaging than the CISA manual). I’m still early in my journey…based on this video, would you reconsider studying for the CISA/GRC first, and pursue a more technical certification in development, networking, coding, etc.?

Would you reccomend this course for people who are in cyber and are looking to upskill? I currently work as a soc analyst

جزاك الله خيرا Thanks for the video. Makes sense. If you want to really get into programming and can afford to, go to 42 London (or any other 42 where you are based). I study at 42 in Wolfsburg, and it really is one of the best programs to not only learn real software development, but to understand memory management, syntaxes of different languages, CI/CD, Git, and APIs. Their curriculum goes way beyond what a bootcamp could ever teach. We learn C and Cpp and the alumni basically learn javascript or java to the point of shipping software in a matter of days or weeks of training when they get into a job. It is an extremely hard program, but if you stick to it 8 hours a day, 6-7 days a week, you will leave as a versatile and strong software engineer after a year or so. It is free, and the school helps you find jobs in development as well. Your background would give you an advantage, and the training would give you an advantage, just like you said, basically in every domain of IT and especially within Cybersec.

the one that REALLY hires

Bro i am confused between cyber security and data science which is best ,i recently join soc analyst class it is worth in india

Omg, you and I are thinking the same thing. Today I was thinking I need to learn some basic programming languages like Python and JavaScript. Do post some mini programming projects on the channel too, I love to see it and follow along with you ❤

Hi Salih! Great video outlining the steps in an incident response process. Just to add to this, we have clients who use different ticketing systems like Jira service mgt, servicenow to raise a ticket to report incidents. That ticket gets updated with a timeline of what corrective actions they took to contain the incident and to assist with post incident review. Great job on the video 🎉

Mash’Allah, you covered everything I needed to know akhi. Jazakalakhair, although a lot of the recommendations, like the books and Luke Ahmed start becoming expensive! Pete Zerger’s class is good and free.

Great video very informative Salih

Seems useful.

First one here!!!...still waiting for connection on LinkedIn

Can you review the regain app ?

Useful tutorial, thanks!

Former teacher here and now IT worker and this is great material!

Your review is pretty detailed, thanks. At the same time, and unfortunately, it is impossible to find RUclips reviews that have not been sponsored by him. Pretty sad that a person that support people for entry level jobs (where not even an interview is guaranteed) creates a $500 course, which actually is not a recognized certification by the industry.

I have network security experience of 8 years and now wanted to move to audit.Is it beneficial for me to do CISA and will I get entry into auditing roles

Thanks for sharing ur experience kudos n congrats to you 🎉

Which one would you say is harder? CCSP or CISSP. Im a cloud security architect. Thanks brother.

Hi Salih, its me again here!! linkedin connection sent by still pending. Name is David Osei Akoto. God bless

@Cyber Salih great video. It pave a way of understanding and thinking out of the box.. I want to get into cyber security space and I saw ur video says how. Can u be my mentor pls.

Thanks for sharing this.

Greetings Brother Salih !

Hi @Salih can u be my mentor. Am new . I want to start my career in cyber security. As u said, IA changed the industry a bit and there are many ways to get into one goal. And u need to know where you're gonna fit in the foundation of the house. Those are highly wise words.

Extremely helpful, thanks man 😀

Standard Brum right?

What you say makes so much sense. It’s so important to get advice from people like you who ground you in reality first. Then, as you go through the grind, if you happen to get any good luck on your journey, it makes it even better. If not, you know what to expect, and you won’t be discouraged if you’re not as insanely lucky as those rare outliers. People need this kind of advice more-it’s practical and realistic. Much respect.

Get a better mic, this isnt 1997. Either that or too much echo etc in your recording area

Wow very thorough

Sorry you’re not subtle attempt at copying Hubermans thumbnail style failed. Save your time don’t waste your 50 mins

Hi Salih,. Aimee referred me to your video and thanks for the mention! Much appreciated. Chris Hall

Great video! So much real world advice. On my own journey different roles in consultancy has given me lots of hands-on exposure in many diverse areas and disciplines. Virtualisation, IaaS/PaaS cloud computing, AKS and more recently SaaS datawarehouses and Cybersecurity. Realistically I wouldn't likely have had direct access to the CNAPP/SIEM tooling etc in a pigeon holed role. I kinda smiled at 13:11 thought about Liam Nesson's character in the film Taken 😂

Very inspiring, will you be able to make a video to share your experience as of how to start with consulting work and get small consulting companies to work for to get experience ?. Keep up the good work

@Cyber Salih this video is fantastic and such solid advice. At 5:41 when you talk about not knowing anything, learning as you go along, and then being the "go to" person is SPOT on especially in a consulting company.

Useful tips that could benefit many. ❤

He has such a passion for CS that pulls people in. Thanks.

Thanks Salih, very helpful. but you never mentioned that CISA made u that bald.

Help me a lot

I work as a technical writer in the info-sec industry right now. My entire job is centered around writing clear, concise, and user-friendly documentation. It's all based on user manuals for software and setting up cybersecurity controls, but I have some internship experience writing internal policies. Would it be realistic to leverage into GRC without going back to school? Would I need certain certs? It looks like GRC people are basically just IT auditors with documentation, so I'm not sure if my documentation experience is enough to break into this career. Any advice?
