If you are interested in cyber security I recommend that you also learn how DNS works, firewalls, and IPS. It’s also important to learn Microsoft architecture and the functions of a LAMP server work. It depends on what your goals are though. Enterprise security, web security, penetration testing, cyber threat hunting, or DFIR.
Networking is a huge part, but there are many other areas in Cybersecurity like: Cloud Security, securing databases, Active Directory, web security, Digital Forensics, Pentesting, etc. Networking I’d argue is the most important, but the areas above are many different routes you can focus on and have a real career. Honestly I’d say for job markets cloud security is going to be the most growing, because AWS and GCP are great for quickly setting up a web server, but the default configurations are atrocious for security, and need to configured and networked securely by a Cloud Security Architect or Cloud Security Engineer. Other than that great vid, but definitely explore these other vectors.
100% agree with you. Thank you for sharing your insights. Often times students (like myself) are so overwhelmed and really do not know where to go. I will be addressing these areas (as you outlined) in the coming months as well because I WANT students to have an option.

OMG, I can't believe you made this video that fast , I just saw your reply on my question in your last video saying that you would do a video talking about it . And then found out that you uploaded it already 2 days later. THANK YOU
Totally agree with you. I said this base on my own background. To be a good Cybersecurity geek you need to know basic networking. Ask hackers they know all this.
The great thing about cyber security are the many roads that lead you there. There isn’t one or two ways, but a plethora, and the industry benefits from the diversity of people, experiences and perspectives they bring.
Hello! Cyber security here from Glasgow, Scotland. When you mentioned "it is so grey" I was hoping you are here as well. This is how it it here like 95% of the time. Hope you feel my pain lol. Thanks for the vids btw, keep it going! You are doing a great job.
I really loved this video and all information that you give us. I'm student of Analysis and Development System's courses in Brazil, and recently I've focused on cybersecurity, and your channel was one of the firsts appeared to me. You're great and I hope you are continuing your work!
He is correct, guys and gals! I took A+, Net+, and CCNA cert courses about 10 years ago and have IT work experience. I'm going for Sec+ in two weeks and preparing to start a Cyber bootcamp in July and going over prep material and it's bringing up so many networking fundamentals that I learned years ago but have gotten rusty on. Security is all about vulnerabilities, threats, asset management, etc but how it's all actually done and protected is through networking. I think I may revisit my Net+ material because I never got my certs just went through the training and got a job after the training.
IT Specialist of 13 years here: So I decided to change my careere to IT-Security, whitch is the reason why I'm even watching this video, and I have to say, that he is right with at least one thing. If you are pursue a career in IT, whatever it is, you should learn networking. A solid education in networking is priceless. And if you are going to get into the IT-Security field, then it's definetely a must. Just to drop a hint: My networking teacher's favoritge game in class was: "We have a switch, a router 3 clients and a 4. client behind the router. Client 2 wants to send a message to client 4 behind the router. We turn them all on at the same time. What is the first thing, that client 2 does on the network?" It was hard and sometimes dull, but I learned a lot about networking. It's all up to 127.0.0.1.
I really dont see whats wrong with that. Its a broad field. It would be nice to know what you're getting into and maybe specialize in something within the field so it'd be easier to find employment after you graduate. Very important to know, you idiot.
Cybersecurity has always been my career goal but I am currently majoring in Networking. At a point, I wondered if Networking is the correct pathway to Cybersecurity but your video has reassured me that I am on the right track. Thanks a lot.
Thank you Grant. I know a couple of your videos have a lot of views, hopefully taking the time to go over this with us just getting into it pays off for you. I won't forget to repay the favor when I'm able.
You are right in some things but not in others. I am also a student of Cybersecurity but with 25 yrs IT background. Cybersecurity it is it's own thing. IT Security, Network Administrator, Server Admins, etc... They all work a specific area inside the network. But Cybersec goes beyond that and not only know how to hardening a system or network they also know how to mitigate attacks, vulnerabilities, threat and so on. Also they are who you will call in case of a Disaster, event or incident. Could be locally or in the cloud. It is more than what you thing, but don't worry I wss was right there where you are. Keep it going and you'll see. Not only Networking but also scripting and a language like Python will help you. Any way good video though.
Very good points here. In all honesty, this video was everywhere, I first talked about "cybersecurity", then my background, then addressed the question 5 minutes in. I would say "cybersecurity" represents a lot of domains. Networking is only one. What I should have said over "networking" is learning the I.T. fundamentals in general, not just networking. I think I will redo this video with more structure, but thank you!
I’m a student as well and my classes are online. I am definitely aiming for my cyber security degree and I will be graduating soon. It’s mostly been a self learning type of experience for me. Since it’s online classes, It does have labs but I’m afraid that I should start seeking hands on knowledge rather then just mind knowledge. I appreciate your knowledge and thank you for sharing! I’m a new subscriber and I definitely would join you on this cyber security journey! :)
This dude just said IT security and networking. This dude is good at filling up time with BS. Wanna learn to network look at the Exam topics for the CCNA then go through each topic. Set a budget for yourself for books online courses and the Test. Do all the labs you can over and over again. Keep detailed notes on the topics and review daily. Take the test pass it then find a help desk job and study for the CCNA Security the same way you did the CCNA Routing and switching. Get that Cert too and look for a job or to move up. You won’t get a job as a security anything if you don’t have previous experience or a B.S. with experience.
Also where I’ve worked they have turned away SEVERAL people with degrees/certs for people with experience as H-1 employees. If you are going to school or studying for the exam then find a low level IT place like a call center and work. You could also buy a few cheap used routers and switches to practice on as a substitute for work experience.
I was looking for some solid guidance as to what i should learn before getting into cyber security. Since I'm a 15-year old, I don'[t go to college. This video helped a me a lot figuring out what I should start out with. Thank you Collin. You gained another sub btw. Great content. Keep it up!
basic networking....switch on a phone, switch wifi on, look for your router, type correct password.....you just open the door to the internet :).....keep learning
My program for cyber security also starts out with that same foundation. Intro to security, Routers and WANS, all before I take one security class. Also there’s classing teaching how to set up servers and troubleshoot them. So I think most cyber security programs will make sure you know how to do that stuff before shooting you into the complex stuff.
It helps a lot to have a good foundation in IT if you want to study cyber security. For example, in my school we saw web development, SQL server and database design, 2 separate foundational network classes (one was the curriculum for Network+) and a complete windows server 2016 administration course. An advance network course that goes a bit beyond the CCNA curriculum. Also we have to take a python programing class. All these classes are incredibly helpful as they give you a more comprehensive picture of how one technology connects with the other. That in my opinion will make you more valuable in the job market.
Bro every time I watch one of your videos it's just great, I die laughing cuz I relate so much to you in like the way that you present yourself, your refreshing another video is old that I'm watching right here but, you're extremely real I appreciate the content thank you bro
I plan to go to community college for an associate's, specifically, as the college puts it, "Associate's In Applied Science--IT and Power Security," and then go from there. I'm going with the network track. According to the curriculum there are classes for network certs. Cisco is one of them I think. I start in Fall 2019 and I'm going to be studying up on networking and coding in the mean time.

No doubt, Networking is very important. I am actually going for my Sec+ first. I have a friend who has a government job with just sec+. He told me that it is an easier cert. I somewhat agree, as in the net+ book is like a thousand pages bigger. But I have come across network stuff in my sec+ studies and I'm not familiar with. Wish me luck.
Can you write down the important things he said? I am a student in my last year of high school and interested in the field of cyber security. But my English is bad. 😅
I started too with A+, then N+ and went for my S+. Basically I went straight for Comptia. Now am working forward for my CCNA.. Am learning how to use the CLI when configuring the router and switch etc. But am doing web dev at the side too..still on HTML & CSS then I'll head for JS.(I'll focus on the front end mainly) My goal is to become a pentester of web applications (or the website in general). So you inspire me to keep on pushing in cybesec✌🔥❤
I started with learning to code basic HTML CSS and PHP then moved on to C++. I then started CompTIA IT Fundamentals along with Digital Cyrptography, Security+, and Network+ all on Cybrary. I took Robotics and used C and RobotC. I'm now learning Ruby as my "7th language" despite remembering only 3. I'm still working on finishing the Network+ course as of now. My plan is to hit up a job in the Cyber Security field right out of highschool without college by getting official certifications before I start applying. Does this plan sound valid or reasonably doable to you?
I heard from a cybersecurity company, if you have certification, you will be pretty set, cuz certification is specified based on a particular set of skills which a company may want. However, having a good testimonial from schools may be a plus to your resume as in IT, teamwork is a good quality to have to show to your future employers
CompTIA Fundamentals , CompTIA A+, CompTIA N+, CompTIA Security+, ( CompTIA Linux +, CompTIA Server+ ) will add advantage. CEH , ECSA, LPT CRISK, CISA, CISM Finally CISSP. - Me planning my career to get into Cybersecurity, still in Software Engineer. Hoping to get into soon
MTAs are a good start. But learning all the different wires were just a headache.... Thank goodness you never have to go back to them again. Subnet masking alongside IP Addressing to Binary was somewhat a math workout, but it doesn't hurt to challenge your brain every now and again. Networking is indeed a MUST before getting anywhere near Ethical Hacking / Cyber Security courses. Be careful of them advertised ethical hacking courses, whilst they teach you on the most part, they completely neglect NETWORKING FUNDAMENTALS. There's so many sources out there on RUclips for free to gain indepth knowledge of Networking, it's best never to stick to one course, branch out into many areas, no harm in diversing your skillset, it'll make for an affective Cyber Security Expert.
Is there a certain video length you need to reach in order to optimize ad revenue? There's a lot of useless filler talk that isn't really productive, i.e. discussing the weather.
Noted, will try to keep all the filler talk out. I can see where you are coming from here for sure. I don't monetize these types of videos. Thanks for the input @Jack Barry!
Great information. I mean if you're in College majoring in CS, and you have a shyt ton of Networking classes to kill just to start* ur CS track? That alone says a lot. Thank you
Cyber security does not mean IT security. It may have used to, but not anymore because there convergence of IIOT, Operational technolgies, etc, has blurred the distinction. I've been in cyber security for the past 7 years.
Definitely understanding the fundamentals of Networking is great advice, it's where anyone should start. But like he said, there's soooooooo many different avenues inside of "Cyber Security".....Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testers, SOC Analyst, Threat Intelligence Analyst, Digital Forensics Analyst and the list goes on and on!!!! So depending on what your career objectives are, would really determine where you should start. Programming knowledge is important, so that you won't remain a "Script Kiddie" all ya damn life lol. Python and Bash Shell Scripting are the two I'd learn first.......AND LEARN LINUX!!!!! Take Linux SysAdmin Courses online for free!
So are you saying we shouldn't learn Networking first or what? What if i wanted to go into Threat Intelligence, would Networking be just as valuable there?
Considering exploring IT with the goal of moving into IT security. I am a complete beginner. The only thing I’m scared of or have questions about is: how much math is involved in the course curriculum and what areas of math are fundamental when working in IT/security. It’s my weak point, I can make it through it. But I need to know if it’s something that is heavily applicable to this career path or just the curriculum. Thanks
Thank you for getting that out there, I've been telling people for a long time that Networking is at the core, it's part of the backbone of IT security (Cybersecurity..I mean the NSA calls it Cybersecurity, dangit I dont care if it's not proper to call it Cybersecurity its what I'll call it 😂). THANK YOU MAN ✊
can you see me Masters have focuses, as in he can get a masters in cyber security while majoring in Computer science. Few schools have a cyber security major...and if he wants to study algorithms anyways, he’ll be more prepared for Algorithm related fields... you’re an absolute dumbass for writing that comment
can you see me because some things you just don’t jump into head first. You don’t start swimming in an ocean before you learn to swim in a pool and learn the fundamentals. If you want a quick fix go ahead. But relying on certificates will render you useless when things evolve imo
Take the CompTIA Network plus for starters. If you need free content, just search Professor Messer in youtube. If you can spend some money, Pluralsight is one of the best platforms for IT learning. they've got basically everything. LinkedIn learning also pretty good and Cybrary too.
Hello All, its a passion if you want to be part of security domain then first you need to know all :OS, Network, Compute, Application development, scripting .. no couse can teach you security intelligence if you have the nack you get it....
A job recruiter told me that you can get your certs online with Linked In Learning and that the results are then posted on Linked In for recruiters to look at and contact you if they feel the score is enough. I thought you had to go to these formal testing centers like Pearson VUE centers to get you test score to be more official. Please advise. Love your channel!

No doubt, Networking is very important. I am actually going for my Sec+ first. I have a friend who has a government job with just sec+. He told me that it is an easier cert. I somewhat agree, as in the net+ book is like a thousand pages bigger. But I have come across network stuff in my sec+ studies and I'm not familiar with. Wish me luck.
when u speak u remind me of Five in Umbrella Academy
I agreee lolll
Which leanguage is the best for cybersecurity
Python
Hey bro
I'm studying bca+
Cyber security+
Cloud computing
Cyber security is really interesting sub.
Hello bro
All of my classes are networking almost finished tho 1 year 1/2 left woot!
You my friend, have a good future.
😂 I feel like that sometimes, I live in the PNW and don't see clear skies for months seems like.
Can you write down the important things he said? I am a student in my last year of high school and interested in the field of cyber security. But my English is bad. 😅
lots of good info here...subscribed
I started too with A+, then N+ and went for my S+. Basically I went straight for Comptia. Now am working forward for my CCNA.. Am learning how to use the CLI when configuring the router and switch etc. But am doing web dev at the side too..still on HTML & CSS then I'll head for JS.(I'll focus on the front end mainly)
My goal is to become a pentester of web applications (or the website in general).
So you inspire me to keep on pushing in cybesec✌🔥❤
Have you managed to get work experience yet?
thank you so much for showing the path, sir
How should we start as a fresher,in cyber security,can you just brief.How do we start learning Networking.
I started with learning to code basic HTML CSS and PHP then moved on to C++. I then started CompTIA IT Fundamentals along with Digital Cyrptography, Security+, and Network+ all on Cybrary. I took Robotics and used C and RobotC. I'm now learning Ruby as my "7th language" despite remembering only 3. I'm still working on finishing the Network+ course as of now. My plan is to hit up a job in the Cyber Security field right out of highschool without college by getting official certifications before I start applying. Does this plan sound valid or reasonably doable to you?
I heard from a cybersecurity company, if you have certification, you will be pretty set, cuz certification is specified based on a particular set of skills which a company may want. However, having a good testimonial from schools may be a plus to your resume as in IT, teamwork is a good quality to have to show to your future employers
@@huhulili9021 Thanks for the response. It kinda puts together the scattered bits and parts of what I've heard.
Great video! Going into Cybersecurity in college. Great help!
Good luck with it!
CompTIA Fundamentals , CompTIA A+, CompTIA N+, CompTIA Security+, ( CompTIA Linux +, CompTIA Server+ ) will add advantage.
CEH , ECSA, LPT
CRISK, CISA, CISM
Finally CISSP.
- Me planning my career to get into Cybersecurity, still in Software Engineer. Hoping to get into soon
Great explanation...very complete.
MTAs are a good start. But learning all the different wires were just a headache.... Thank goodness you never have to go back to them again. Subnet masking alongside IP Addressing to Binary was somewhat a math workout, but it doesn't hurt to challenge your brain every now and again. Networking is indeed a MUST before getting anywhere near Ethical Hacking / Cyber Security courses. Be careful of them advertised ethical hacking courses, whilst they teach you on the most part, they completely neglect NETWORKING FUNDAMENTALS. There's so many sources out there on RUclips for free to gain indepth knowledge of Networking, it's best never to stick to one course, branch out into many areas, no harm in diversing your skillset, it'll make for an affective Cyber Security Expert.
Good video brother. Keep it up!
Make a video on soar and ueba technology
Which laptop you have 🧑💻?
Interesting. I am studying Cybersecurity in germany and most of the courses are about math. Networking is a minor part.
hey i wanna ask u do u recommend me studying it in germany or should i look somewhere else
It's hard to be serious when watching the video
Is there a certain video length you need to reach in order to optimize ad revenue? There's a lot of useless filler talk that isn't really productive, i.e. discussing the weather.
Usually about 10 minutes a RUclipsr I watch addressed the length of time needed to effectively gain revenue
10+ min videos allow you to add mid roll ads on the video. however you can see there's no mid rolls set up here
Noted, will try to keep all the filler talk out. I can see where you are coming from here for sure. I don't monetize these types of videos. Thanks for the input @Jack Barry!
10 minutes rofl
We enjoy his unrelated talks too ... keeps it real ... doesnt make it too formal like just another instructor in class
Which laptop you Have
Great information. I mean if you're in College majoring in CS, and you have a shyt ton of Networking classes to kill just to start* ur CS track? That alone says a lot. Thank you
Skip to 4:30 for first point to start
Thanks for helping 🙏🙏
Cyber security does not mean IT security. It may have used to, but not anymore because there convergence of IIOT, Operational technolgies, etc, has blurred the distinction. I've been in cyber security for the past 7 years.
Definitely understanding the fundamentals of Networking is great advice, it's where anyone should start. But like he said, there's soooooooo many different avenues inside of "Cyber Security".....Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testers, SOC Analyst, Threat Intelligence Analyst, Digital Forensics Analyst and the list goes on and on!!!! So depending on what your career objectives are, would really determine where you should start. Programming knowledge is important, so that you won't remain a "Script Kiddie" all ya damn life lol. Python and Bash Shell Scripting are the two I'd learn first.......AND LEARN LINUX!!!!! Take Linux SysAdmin Courses online for free!
So are you saying we shouldn't learn Networking first or what? What if i wanted to go into Threat Intelligence, would Networking be just as valuable there?
Funtamentals?
Considering exploring IT with the goal of moving into IT security. I am a complete beginner. The only thing I’m scared of or have questions about is: how much math is involved in the course curriculum and what areas of math are fundamental when working in IT/security. It’s my weak point, I can make it through it. But I need to know if it’s something that is heavily applicable to this career path or just the curriculum. Thanks
Thank you for getting that out there, I've been telling people for a long time that Networking is at the core, it's part of the backbone of IT security (Cybersecurity..I mean the NSA calls it Cybersecurity, dangit I dont care if it's not proper to call it Cybersecurity its what I'll call it 😂). THANK YOU MAN ✊
Cybersecurity is a major?? Isn't a major in Computer Science then specialize in Cybersecurity?
basically no
Got the same question.
@@Official_Baba_yaga so you're saying that theres no need of a Computer Science degree if one is pursuing a career in cyber defense?
can you see me
Masters have focuses, as in he can get a masters in cyber security while majoring in Computer science. Few schools have a cyber security major...and if he wants to study algorithms anyways, he’ll be more prepared for Algorithm related fields... you’re an absolute dumbass for writing that comment
can you see me
because some things you just don’t jump into head first. You don’t start swimming in an ocean before you learn to swim in a pool and learn the fundamentals. If you want a quick fix go ahead. But relying on certificates will render you useless when things evolve imo
Little did we know that little did we know.
Thanks for your advices
Nice my friend #good_luck😍❤❤❤
Khaled I خالد #gay
Thanks for the Info Bro
According to you , where should one learn networking before starting with cybersecurity ?
What should be the appropriate online resource ?
Take the CompTIA Network plus for starters. If you need free content, just search Professor Messer in youtube. If you can spend some money, Pluralsight is one of the best platforms for IT learning. they've got basically everything. LinkedIn learning also pretty good and Cybrary too.
Do i need to master DS Algo , if i am in cybersecurity ?
Hello All, its a passion if you want to be part of security domain then first you need to know all :OS, Network, Compute, Application development, scripting .. no couse can teach you security intelligence if you have the nack you get it....
Can we learn how to configure a server without going joining any company but from home itself.. practically not theoretical
I'm 12 thx for helping me early
What are the programming language we need to know
Thank you.
A job recruiter told me that you can get your certs online with Linked In Learning and that the results are then posted on Linked In for recruiters to look at and contact you if they feel the score is enough. I thought you had to go to these formal testing centers like Pearson VUE centers to get you test score to be more official. Please advise. Love your channel!
Coursera or LinkedIn offer certificates not certifications.
What subjects ( like physics) should I learn before learning cyber security
