I’m in infrastructure operations and wanting to move over to pentesting. I have begun with THM jr pentesting and will complete the others in THM and HTB. I had an interview with a pentesting company yesterday and realised other theoretical courses didn’t give me the skills needed to do well in the interview. Your video is great!
Thanks my Mentor 🙏🏼 your video are always top notch and is a legacy that will forever be. I appreciate everything you do for your community and I will definitely continue to work hard in order to keep your knowledge moving and represent you as well in a positive way.
I have started Google Cybersecurity Certificate course after watching your video on it. I just can't wait to get my career started in cybersecurity! Very excited. Thanks for the valuable content and guidance❤🙌
This guy is a boon to the every budding cybersecurity professionals....personally speaking I had lost hope after I saw the prices of all the known certification and the day I landed on this RUclips channel I got my goal and also the path to it.... additionally I would request you to make a dedicated video for SOC analyst "Do's & Don'ts"🙂🙏
Though I want to be a cyber defense analyst in the blue team I will do maybe one pen testing cert which would be the THM Jr pen tester cert. I will do a mix of blue team certs, your GRC course and the pen testing cert from THM, that way I have so many skills. Thank you for this video.
I'm doing the ejpt course right now and its a good course. Might also do the Hack The Box CPTS as well because of the Active Directory portion which the eJOT doesn't have. Great video by the way.
I am paying nearly 8000$ dollar of complete 4 years course of Bachelor of Cybersecurity and the collage is only giving two certificate CCNA and CEH in the 58% discount no pratical knowledge only theory based i am really learning more than that from youtube , books and online resources from you sir. which makes really trouble i had payed half money on my university neither i can dropout neither i can continue...

As someone who is currently working as Security Analyst, which red team cert would you recommend? The purpose is to advance in my field and also to have an opportunity to switch to red team in the future.
GREAT video! I TOTALLY agree with your #1 Pick! Besides cost, what do you think of GIAC's GPEN, with all other things considered, as compared to CEH and your top picks?
Hi, I'm planning for the CEH version 13 and with my research I came to know that there are 2 types of CEH exam one is theoretical (MCQ's) the other is practical (Master's). And I made an enquiry on one of the learning center they told me the curriculum for both is the same it's just the certification cost differs. Correct me if I'm wrong? I want to show some certification on my resume & LinkedIn also gain hands on knowledge, please suggest which one should I opt?
Good day my mentor, I want to ask you about the Master's program for a cybersecurity enthusiast. I just graduated and I am thinking of applying for scholarships to go for masters.

Hello sir, my name is Emmanuel, and I'm a cybersecurity professional based in Nigeria. I'm seeking advice on remote job hunting. I currently hold Google Cyber Security and Microsoft Cyber Security certifications, and I'm planning to obtain the CompTIA Security+ certification next month to enhance my job prospects, as many employers require it. Besides my certification pursuits, I'm actively engaged in learning, teaching, and bug hunting programs. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or advice you can offer regarding remote job hunting from Africa.
@@UnixGuy Thx really Unix for your help I discovered your channel before 2 months and you I got from more cybersecurity information than in my first year in bachelor which is really sad
I recently graduated from Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering, and 1 week ago I took admission in Master of Technology in Cyber Forensics and Information Security. Now the main point is that my college has a partnership with the EC Council. So they can provide me the CEH certification exam voucher at a price of Rs. 13000 (approx. $155). So my question is, should I purchase the voucher now or should I practice the TryHackMe courses first? I am really novice in the cyber security field.
it’s just the nature of business, there will always be more need for defensive people, thats why I recommend becomig a generalist and add pentesting as a skill: ruclips.net/video/rz0RL4Xue-A/видео.htmlsi=XX6zR3dfSrQavKjM

eJPT is a good introduction
Hello sir, my name is Emmanuel, and I'm a cybersecurity professional based in Nigeria. I'm seeking advice on remote job hunting. I currently hold Google Cyber Security and Microsoft Cyber Security certifications, and I'm planning to obtain the CompTIA Security+ certification next month to enhance my job prospects, as many employers require it. Besides my certification pursuits, I'm actively engaged in learning, teaching, and bug hunting programs. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or advice you can offer regarding remote job hunting from Africa.
follow the recommendations in this video, they’re better than multiple choice stuff
@@UnixGuy but job markets list mostly OSCP and Security+
Hello Unix thx for your helpful videos can we also get a video same as this but for the blue team
I already have…

@@UnixGuy Thx really Unix for your help I discovered your channel before 2 months and you I got from more cybersecurity information than in my first year in bachelor which is really sad
I recently graduated from Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering, and 1 week ago I took admission in Master of Technology in Cyber Forensics and Information Security. Now the main point is that my college has a partnership with the EC Council. So they can provide me the CEH certification exam voucher at a price of Rs. 13000 (approx. $155). So my question is, should I purchase the voucher now or should I practice the TryHackMe courses first? I am really novice in the cyber security field.
in the video I talked about CEH… stick to whats in the video
@@UnixGuyokay sir. Thank you.
Thanks 🎉
🙏🏻
Why there are very few jobs for pentesters?
it’s just the nature of business, there will always be more need for defensive people, thats why I recommend becomig a generalist and add pentesting as a skill:

@UnixGuy so after OSCP can we switch to defense as they always need experience and not easy to get into industry
@@singhgagandeep955 you don’t need to ‘switch’, you need to be applying to jobs to gain experience - take what you can get… watch this video till the end please:

@UnixGuy okay thank you
Hey guys,
Anyone say about junior cyber security analyst by cisco does it worth?
To learn basic knowledge yes, currently going through it and it's too focused on networking. Little hands on experience compared to hack the box
But in cisco there is no practical lab access compared to other certs . That's why I am thinking to start
it is fine but my recommendation is to follow this:

Thanks for your reply sir I just follow your map
What about pnpt
if you watched the video that you’re commenting on you would know….
Can we get a job by following this roadmap as penetration tester
yes! but also watch my other videos to understand the process more
Thank you sharing this knowledge. It's really meaningful and important to be able to access to an industry professional's views and recommendations. I am really benefiting from both you and an another youtuber called MYDFIR.

Hey I was in your discord now I’m mot sure what going on but I would love to figure it out
no idea, we have thousands of members, and the auto mod bot will ban accounta that break the rules (spam, rude language, etc)
join with another username ans have a read of the rules :)
I agree with the certs, FYI the Video title has some spelling mistake don't know how nobody noticed but I would like to make my open source contribution here (lol)

@@UnixGuy afcause.. Why not.. Its ridiculous
@UnixGuy these are not certifications, and if you are like me from small tcn county no way to get job
yeah smaller market will limit your choices but from what you say then best not to do anything and just give up and do something else because no one ever gets any job?
Can someone recommended sites for practical challenges, where we can test our knowledge and also, which can be valuable for our resume.
follow whats in the video….
@UnixGuy it's like they didn't watch it..
🤦
Man, he must REALLY hate SANS courses. Lol
Do I now 🤣 I’ve got GCIA(expired), GCFA, GPEN and GSTRT…
You must not know how much Sans courses cost 😂
Lovely video. Anyone up to form a study group?
Is there one that exists that I can join?
join discord, link in description box - plenty of people there
Thanks

Would you take Tcm-security's PNPT or CPTS first? After finish the tryhackme Red Team Paths
CPTS is extremely comprehensive as it is, I would do it after tryhackme and i would skip PNPT in this case :)
