Finally someone that tells the truth about cybersecurity, I had to sacrifice 3 years of my life just to get half of the knowledge and experience to get into the industry (and even today I still have a lot to learn).Now I keep seeing random videos of course sellers telling people they can get into cybersecurity in 3 to 12 months with no experience.
Hey there, agreed with you!
I hear you. I'm on year 1 of that journey from 10 years of IT. So much to learn 😫😫
Right, theyre really setting people up for failure.
Don't worry, diversity hiring practices will fix all that. You'll have boot campers who don't know what a firewall even is but they meet the race criteria.
@@kevmo2990 They'll say you're a gatekeeper when you tell them the truth, everyone thinks they can be mr robot in 1 year.
Its Constant Learning, It's hard if you say its hard. It's your mindset !
Exactly hard is relative and very different for many people
Its passion
Exactly. 100%
Facts , you gotta want it . People hear the money and forget they actually have to do the work .
Silly comment. It's always hard. It's whether or not you can get used to working like that. Many can't. But saying pr suggesting it's not hard is false. Running a marathon is always hard, no matter how much joy you get out of running.
The grind is long but I am enjoying it. I love tackling challenges. In Highschool, I was not good academically. My average gpa was 1.8. I am doing cybersecurity to challenge myself, to see how intelligible I really am. To let my old self know that he was nothing more than a shell that is eroding away.
Tell me how it goes for you bro keep it up 😊
This helped me a lot 💕
I’m just starting the process now for the same reasons! Keep fighting the good fight 💪🏽
@@Deft300 can u pls tell me if u learned by yourself or u studied the whole thing?
That’s dope, power to you.
Ngl, this video helped me realize cyber security is not for me. I can finally get that thought out of my head and maybe look towards front end dev. Good luck on your journey guys!
Try it out first
Front end dev has a high chance of getting automated away in the next 5 to 10 years, or at least the salary will decrease because of that.
I haven't even finished the video yet but I'm already so thankful. As a college student of a different field, I'm a bit intimidated but also relieved from the info you shared. Thank you so much!
Thanks again for reminding things aren't easy in life, with so much distractions its hard to achieve goals
the most expanded but short video of cyber info i've seen! more than grateful
BRAVO! Thank you Jono. This is very heartwarming! So important video not enough people have to seen this!
Wow…This is good. Beginners usually think they have to know everything under the cybersecurity umbrella but no, just focus on a domain. With time, you will develop interest in others and naturally pivot towards them.
Any suggestions?
@@tejuanphillips8922Identity Access Management
yeah any suggestions?
Tryhackme…start there
Bruh. Thank you. I’m on year 5 and I still feel like I know nothing even after constantly learning day after day, getting new certs each year, doing projects after work, and working in a very active environment day job. Managers need knowledge mile wide and inch deep but actual technical professionals (like myself as a T3 threat analyst) takes knowledge a mile wide and a mile deep. It’s a lot of work and strain on the brain. A LOT more than I expected before getting into the domain.
Hey, could you provide what things you’re exactly doing in cybersecurity? What things are “hard” and why it is considered difficult to learn? I’m someone interested in this field so I would appreciate the advice!
Year 5 and you've known nothing? Are you sure you've really learned? You should have learned something already by year 2. It might seems you were learning everything at once rather than focusing on one path until you've mastered it and move onto the next.
@@msascuinonducorduco you’re taking it too literally.
I think that's the thing about working in IT spaces - you never really know everything. I'm sure after 5 years, you have very good knowledge... we just have to keep learning new things since this space evolves/changes at such a rapid pace. You have to be a lifetime student just to survive and keep up.
Do I need a 4 year uni programme to start my journey in Cybersecurity
This is really helpful. I have a problem of grinding non-stop. I would code from 9PM to 5 AM and forget about everything else.
Outstanding use of your time and giving value to other! Very commendable and worthwhile!
I am just beginning my associates in Computer Science and Information Systems this month and this video is inspiring. Tossing around a few career options to specialize in when I go for my bachelors and cybersecurity is one of those options. It sounds like I would be a great fit.
its fr hard, i get so intimidated just reading up on concepts. been consistently studying for a week now and ive already learned a lot! looking forward to learning more
Thank you for this information, it was very helpful. I’m trying to decide if I want to pivot careers and Cybersecurity was my top choice. No matter what you learn it’s a grind to be successful, put in the work and success will come. Nothing comes easy in life. 🙏🏾
I have had the exact same experience. I had a 20 yr Naturopathic Doctor Private Practice, and sold Medicare as a licensed insurance agent. If you want something better than to work at McDonald's or a clothing store, you got to keep up with the grind. New information, a lot of new information, comes out daily in any professional field. People depend on us. This is my public service, not just some random job for the money. That turns my motivation around.
I love this video!
Been working IT specialist and system admin work for 5+ years now and learning programming on the side, I decided to look into Ethical hacking one day and loved it and it feels great finding something I can enjoy, have a goal to aim for and have a good chunk of developed experience and skills I can convert to such a role.
Grind can be hard, im 29 and only now deciding to work towards Ethical hacking, its never too late just need to dedicate time and energy to the grind 🙏
First time watching your video and your opinions are ringing with a lot of truth and well grounded!🌟😊💯👍🏽
This made me feel a lot better, I enjoy the field but to cram all this stuff and preparing for the cert exams which I'm really bad at taking test , been studying and worrying but im still grinding
This is a short video with a lot of great information! Will be sharing within our company!
That's a pretty complex area, but it's worth learning! Great video) 🔥
Videos like this are the reason, why people like to watch ur videos. Good job mate.
Thanks for the feedback!
You are the reason i am going into cybersecurity… idgaf how hard. i am going all the way 😂 i am 30 and dont really have a life so making something out of this is more realistic 😊
Same. Almost thirty this month. I started my online courses this past October. Hadn’t finished my bachelors. Going in to get my life going.
I’m 30 too and want to get in.. I messed up and looking for another chance
@@xyz-pg3zd always another chance. You got it.
im 30 as well, been a cop since 22. Looking for a career change and deciding between cyber security or software development.
Anyone have advice pls share
Great video. It feels like I came to you and asked for a cybersecurity guide and tips.
Thank you for this valuable information.
Great work dude, appreciate it.
You're amazing my guy. Keep it up! You have definitely been a great guide in my journey to the Cybersecurity field
Thanks for the feedback!
I followed the path from a guy who has been in the industry. Did exactly what he did and had no problems. He not only provided the certs I needed first, he told me what not to waste my time on......but the most important thing is contacts. It is who you know not what you know...in every single form of jobs. You get them from who you know. I had 15 years experience in finance and also a MBA so when they see me I can relate not only to different people in different divisions but understand how the company operates. I provide value at multiple levels.
You wanna spill the beans on the path you took brother man. CERTs, what to learn and what not to. Currently going to school for cyber and wanna learn ahead but don’t know where to go
Please elaborate
@@baenksy same situation bro...
@@baenksySecurity+, and some AWS and Azure certs if you wanna do CloudSec. Also CISSP and CySA+
Would be helpful if you could share the same with us 😢
I will finish my cybersecurity Hons degree in May it's gonna be continuous learning thats for sure as I go in to the field.
Im 16, ever since I was a kid I was interested in computers, I’ve taken an interest in this field and I’ve learned the basics of python but, this video really helped me to know where to ‘look’ if that makes sense. Overall thanks for this informative video!
Hey Jono I’m glad you gave professor messer kudos as I’m studying with him to get my A+.and I like the cybersecurity field.i know now with the new A+ exam coming out some time in late 2025 CompTia will probably have people to know a little about AI and machine learning technology is always changing and we have to keep up.thanks for sharing this information.
Appreciate it man, good look
I'm coming up on 24 years dedicated to Cybersecurity, nearly 30 in IT. I still learn new things daily.
how much you earn
@@Alex-rv5ev peanut
It is hard , this is why you took me me for granted. Thank you, one day God will remind you that we are dust.
I love your videos! very well explained!
Ok this was very helpfull and im getting very excited on continuing the journy got some good leads and now its time to get grinding
Yeah, this is top-tier content. Good Job
Honest one! came from security and shifted to devops due to hard path. Security is a no joke
Nothing in this world is easy just choose one hard thing and focus on it
For me this is Assembly code!
its true cybersecurity is no joke its hard work i nearly gave up
So how is it going now??
@@Villaindits for now its going great i am documenting my journey on my youtube channel @mastertvt913
How is it going

How's it going cuz
Thanks for this!!
Honest information , Thank you
good insights man, really good video!
Thank you for that!
Thank you for keeping it real
Very good thank you!
Thanks for the video! I'm getting my BS in Cybersecurity at WGU and just completed my A+ and currently studying for Network+ now. I'm a new subscriber now!
Every goverment job these day require Security plus. But you have to take it every 3 yrs... Learn that next. I learn less than a month pass it now it sit in an email. Never look it again... 🤣
This is from my experience, bro. A+ doesn't mean anything. Book smart means nothing. It's about QUALITY experience, talent, and the ability to think outside of the box to get the job done. There's no college in America that will teach you how to do your job. I'm not in Cyber Security, but that's my experience in IT. In my field, we have a lot of dumb people that have 4 year degrees and more experience in certain areas, but even they can't do the job correctly. That's why it's a COMBINATION of the traits above and not just one of them.
Hello boycotthell71! I’m in the same boat with you, getting my BS in cybersecurity with WGU too. I’m just starting the program.
Same boat brother!
Currently in the same program and studying for the A+ now. Got any tips or video recommendations?
Facts! Cyber is Not Easy like some folks made it seem.
It takes a solid foundation of IT in my opinion and lots of training. Is not impossible, but not easy. Good luck! ✌🏽😎
Best "Cyber Security cert" to get remains a EEE or CE degree.
This information is wayyy too valuable for under 10k subscribers. Great video! I have A+ and Network+ atm, working towards Security+ but really want to practice. This content gave me something to focus on for gaining practical knowledge!
I was preparing for security + directly do I need to first d A+ etc ?
@@bread_yt93 no you can go straight to security+ if you want/have the ability to, however A+ and Network+ provide a lot of foundational information that lead into security+. If you’re mainly focused on getting a job, security+ is a golden ticket but experience will always win the race. Hope this helps a little bit
@@bread_yt93hey ! can you please explain me what does it mean A+ or Security+ ? Because I have just recently start a research about cyberSecurity and I keep seeing something+ .
@@omarkhallouki5863they are certifications that are very valuable to get jobs. A+, net+, sec etc. look up compTIA to see the exam stuff
@@omarkhallouki5863 They're certifications offered by the IT company comptia.
A very much needed video. A lot of the marketing from cybersecurity programs is that there are an abundance of jobs out there and that if you just take their program you'll easily get in.
What they don't tell you is that there are so many openings because it's difficult finding qualified candidates who have enough experience. There are tons of people out there who have lots of knowledge - they have their bachelors, they have taken their Sec+ or similar cert, but they can't even get a job. The "entry-level" jobs aren't for those new to the field. The barriers to entry are steep, and the competition is high. It's even worse now thanks to AI consuming some of the lower-level grunt work that might be done by some of those "entry-level" positions.
What is AI doing ?
@@xyz-pg3zdBasically it's doing the helpdesk monkey work a lot people might have used to get entry level Cyber Sec.
In other words, the few actual entry level posts somken with say Sec+ and Network+ might've beem able to blag their way in to 10 years ago are rapidly disappearing.

Thank you! This was very helpful information to let me know what to expect. (Still not scared) ;)
finally someone who tells it like it is
Thanks for the comment!
Thank you ❤
Thank you!
It depends on what your definition of "the grind" is. If that includes pulling all-nighters, skipping the gym, eating like health is the last thing on your list - then absolutely no. The grind is not only NOT necessary, it will make you all the worse for it. If by "the grind", you mean working your ass off for eight hours, then going home. Then sure. But putting your own mental and physical health on a lower peg than your job - even if it's temporary - is a shit suggestion. A sharp mind and a healthy body is the foundation for learning effectively, responding effectively, and excelling in anything you do. Hurting your brain and body (aka: down-clocking your CPU and pulling half the wires out of your motherboard) is the last thing anybody in cybersecurity should be doing.
That sounds lovely but you obviously don't work Blue Team.... it's constant out of hours work at big companies. Weekends. 4 am in the morning. 60+ hour weeks are common.
Hackers l, especially sophisticated AI or ML driven attacks, don't care about your work life balance. In fact they count on it. That's why most popular time in US for cyber attacks is Thanksgiving holidays.
Blue Team Cuber Sec isn't front end dev. You can't do 40 hours a week always. You can't even count on following the sun or AI Ops always.
You will be asked and compelled to imbalance your work/life in favour of work. It's the nature of the job.
@@iorekby I'll tell you with certainty - given the studies I've seen, I would not trust security experts who sacrifice personal time for work. Especially if they sacrifice sleep for work. That's a repeatedly verified recipe for high-cost mistakes. And in cybersecurity - especially during or after a successful attack - high cost mistakes can mean the difference between survival and closing your doors.
Cybersecurity hotshots (just like the game developer hotshots and software engineer hotshots from back in the day) need to accept the facts. The biggest reason there are even security issues in the first place? It's a direct result of high-pressure, long-hour, hard-deadline environments. Release release release - who cares about the bugs - we need this out now!
I'd rather have two shifts of fresh minds ready to rocket into action than one, long, drudging, grueling, Monster/Adderall riddled shift that are ready to pass out by the end of their shift.
It's not the nature of cybersecurity - it's the result of a highly reactive rather proactive economic pressures.
@@iorekby TLDR: would you rather cops work long, mentally taxing shifts - using uppers just to finish the day in time to knock out a quick 4 hours of sleep before hitting the streets with a gun on their hip? Or maybe cops that work shorter shifts, don't need uppers and get a full 8hrs of sleep per night?
Just sayin'. I know which one's I'd rather have roaming my streets.
@BlackbodyEconomics What are you even rambling about? What studies?
This isn't ego, its necessity. No one wants to get a 4am call out ffs.
You're coming at this from some delusional point of view where its guys wanting to swing their dicks. It's almost never that. It's literally there's no one else.
It's like saying a paramedic or ER nurse pulling a double shift is trying to be a rockstar. Utter drivel. They are doing it for necessity.
If you actually worked cyber Sec, you'd understand that. No one wants the anti social hours or stress. It's just that there are too few skilled professionals for the number of attacks currently.
Maybe pontificate about something you've real world experience of next time instead of reading a Medium article and telling actual people who do the job what's what.
I get what you're saying but its a fantasy to expect good work-life-balance in IT, let alone cybersecurity. Its one of the reasons why there are so many vacancies for cybersec jobs.
Nothing is hard its just new
It's changed my mind from give up.....
Thank you. That part
It’s not hard at all I thought I was going to be hard but it’s just time & practice
@@dalvindream8975 I've never been good with computers, like I can type fast and am apart of the younger generation so I'm not like an old man, I have no qualifications. I'm 27 and need to start a career, do you think cyber security would be a good route for me? I get stressed easily and have a history of depression. You think I could do this shit? Any help is appreciated man
That’s what she said.
Thank you this is helpful
Thanks for the great video!
Thanks!
CyberSecurity domain is an ocean. There are many different areas that fall under the cybersecurity umbrella, and these are often referred to as cybersecurity domains. Network Security, Cloud Security, Application Security, Endpoint Security, Incident Response, Risk Management and etc.,
It's quite a challenging field, but well worth learning!
Thank you. I’ve been fixing pc and started my own business but never hopped into cyber security. Shooting for help desk to get my feet wet.
It's not really a field though, it's an umbrella term for a lot of different fields.
This video is awesome.
Great article
Nothing in life that’s easy is worth it. Apply yourselves!
Joni I love this video it really helps me conform what I wanna do in the future but I had one question. Around how long is a normal work day?
This was so interesting because I found a college course near me that offers computer science with a specialization in cyber security. I was first interested in information science from that same collage but cyber security just sounds really interesting. I‘m just a little bit intimidated especially from that computer science side :/
I intend to enroll in your course. I have been following your professional advice for some time, particularly your recommendations for career advancement and appropriate certifications. I appreciate your providing this GRC course.
Appreciate it!
I enjoy your rationale. Too many ppl coming with hyperbole tags now “how to get 6 figure salary in cybersecurity” “how to become a cybersecurity expert in 6 months” etc.
This field is a continuous professional development. There is no “ive made it moment” the moment u think that it means you’re behind…if tech is always evolving then the mind has to follow suit.
Pentesting was my first job in cyber security. And I've actually worked alongside many pentesters that were new to cyber security over the years. Great video though.
cap
@@Slashy_rlmost pen testers are very confined in their scope based on an agreement with the company. They simply follow a checklist of tests with the help of a network scanner. It really doesn’t seem too difficult.
That’s why pen tests aren’t the end all be all of IT security audits.
@@hazeljust7001 Im a Uk college student in my first year of a level 3 IT course which covers basic networking etc, seeing these videos puts me off my goal and lowkey has me thinking if i should continue or not? I know IT has so many doors open but do you agree with this video? I dont have much experience in IT, im just 16 years old and I really wanna get into pen testing. But ive also been advised stuff like cloud aws is good, im just in it for the money really but cybersecurity is something i find passionate about the whole idea of ethical hacking seems very interesting to me and id love to be apart of it.
@@hazeljust7001 oh, you right, i overlooked and thought you were talking about red teaming
@@Slashy_rlYou are probably right, but I feel the OP is again being disingenuous. I have known plenty of "new pentesters, new to Cyber Sec" who had been network engineers or sys admins for like 10 years before had lol 😆
Thats not exactly "new" now, is it.
I'm looking forward to learn from you
Cheers!
so where do you recommend i begin i have done nothing except a minimal amount of Microsoft office adn i never got certifide so waht is the path i should take and where should i begen
I’m giving myself a 6 year time frame to get a cyber security job but hopefully sooner. Aiming for as much certs and experience between now and then.
6 year Is lot 🤯, pls tell what u r doing now
@@tumharadost1745 I’m working in customer services whilst at Uni one night a week and a part time CS degree with the open uni. I want to get a few certs this year to add to the one’s earned in 2023. Next year I’ll start applying for jobs but 2030 is my goal but will be pleased if it happens sooner
ive learned more in 7 months doing IT store support than i have while getting my associates in cyber
Degrees teach jack. Best way to learn is hands-on.
I always fell bad when I fell I’m behind, which always happens when I learn something new 💔
Starting my BS in cybersecurity and information assurance at WGU in March, this video helps a lot and is very informative!
As someone who has done a BSc and a MSc in CS, you still need the IT Job experience and Sec Certs
The degrees only touch on the basics of sec for 2/3 modules not really needed but can be an advantage governance wise
@@BilalAhmed-um1umfor sure, appreciate this and will definitely keep it in mind!
I became a cybersecurity analyst with no IT background but only with my quick learning skill and major drive to learn, and it’s been really hard. Esp with no room for error and # of alerts. Wish I started with help desk and then pivoted into cyber
How were you able to get that job with no IT background?
I really got into Cyber Security through Cyber Patriot competitions which my class does. I was mostly put on Linux which I really didn't understand how to use. Through the competitions, I learned about finding backdoors, SQL, a bit of PHP, and enjoyed using linux. I enjoyed the problem solving aspect of the field and I am also enjoying a bunch of tips you guys give out and it genuinely is helping me get better and not lose interest. I'm planning to do ethical hacking as a career
Yeah you and everyone else
@@ProBallerJordan3 I actually enjoy what I'm learning about in class which is network security and administrator and only a junior. I find this particular science field quite fun and it's a career that I can see myself doing.
Can't really tell if that was satire on the Internet.
@Virulence-xb2rv my university is offering network and security track, do you have any idea what will we do while studying this track and does it require mathematics? And is it easy? One more question what are some jobs that comes with network and security bachelor degree? I hope you answer me
@@misterperfection4114 1. You should definitely look through the job listings to see what jobs require. You can get many jobs with a bachelor's degree and some don't require one. Unless you are going for higher positions, a bachelor's degree is good. You also should get your certifications such as A+, Networking+, depending on what you're doing. They do expire, as CompTIA expires every 3 years I believe.
2. I'm a junior in HS and I don't know what you'll be learning but it will definitely require math. Binary is relatively easy to understand, it's just 2^x+1. So it goes 1,2,4,8,16,32,etc. You'll also use math when setting up your servers and running your cables, but that is pretty much the easy parts of it. If your learning cryptography, then you'll definitely need a grasp of algebra
3. No it's not easy. It can get pretty confusing if you don't pay attention. It may be easy online since you get detailed instructions but in a practical setting, it requires a bunch of planning. You may get a GUI on some systems but some others maybe something like a DNS server could only have a core installation. For my class we were able to learn how to manage the server roles with a GUI or with PowerShell. PowerShell isn't hard to learn and it has a very easy syntax to learn.
You're in a college course and that sounds pretty awesome. Don't fully take advice from me as I'm not all the way there, I know I'm wrong in a lot of aspects
Good to know! Im too stupid this!
Im constantly seeing adds for cybersecurity making 60k with 6 month!
Depends entirely on what domain you are working in. I know people in security that don't even know what a browser cookie is. You're explaining what it takes to get into security operations or risk assessment but you don't need to know any of that to do GRC
Can you make a detailed video on your journey? like a roadmap we can follow, I am from Software Engineering too
A sincere video
I would like to choose manual then auto integrate without any privacy after bypass access
thank you
There are many jobs, industries, and careers that are "hard" to learn and to get into. Cyber Security is just one of them. So when you go for those types of jobs or careers, the journey is long. You have to be dedicated and committed to put in a lot of time to practice and learn. Only those who are PASSIONATE and actually want to do this kind of work are the ones who see results and some level of success. Good luck to all.
In my recent experience, it’s usually gatekeepers or techbro culture that thwarts noobs with doe eyed enthusiasm for the industry writ large. It’s that level discouragement that turns would be professionals into data analysts.
Thanks for the input!
I have been on the other side of this coin and trust me when i say it was demoralizing to be heading projects well above my paygrade, all self taught, all education, studying, and student debt i underwent just to hand it away to coworkers who straight up admitted to not doing anything for a day, playing video games on company time, and through manipulation would still look better than myself to superiors. I got out of that toxic situation and into infrastructure and infosec with a mature team. Just realize there is more to the story than just gatekeeping. Your education is your responsibility.
What's your education and professional experience and what positions did you apply for?
@@hottroddinncan’t speak for OP, but I took classes at my local community college and used that to study for Sec+, A+ and Network+. I passed those, and spend my time on HackTheBox trying to do all the different rooms and stuff. I can’t even get a call back for a help desk job because every help desk posting wants 2 years of IT experience at minimum. What else do you do when you can’t even get in at entry level? I’m thankful I kept my mortgage job while taking classes, otherwise I’d be fucked.
@@shanksgiving that's sad. An entry level help desk job shouldn't be so hard to get in but people have made it so hard for everything. Hope you get to land that job soon.
Damn, Im currently working to have a diploma in IT (standard help desk with some knowledge in cybersecurity), but I think in order to get the appropriate knowledge in cybersecurity, one needs to have all the basic knowledge in IT and it takes time, like 2 years at least + working as an analyst SOC for 2-3 years, and THEN I think it’ll be a good base + curiosity with some RSS updated to get the latest news in this field
Every single skill, trade, profession teach you new things if you keep your curiosity intact. Even while you have already the 10000 flight hours
It's not about easy or hard.
This sphere is very stressful and has a huge responsibility.
Am Analyst at SOC of top telecom in my country, got in with relevant degree (ongoing) and enthusiasm, drive, obsession. Have that and you can do it. Be chill at workplace too, respect the others always. Argue when it matters, then explain later. ha
btw I love my job, hunting the logs, listening to the smartest people I’ve ever known, vibing with fellow employees about factual stuff, no bullshit. 🙀
Cisco also has free computer courses but I also love professor messor
What is the name of the automated service you referenced at 5:35 Jono?
I Agree with this
Great video
Thanks for the feedback!
Never give up on your goals, even when things get tough. Many programmers have spent years learning their craft, and it's not something that can be achieved overnight. It's essential to persevere and keep pushing forward, even when others may tell you to give up. Remember, knowledge is gained through dedication and hard work
Will there be a Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) assessment as part of the interview process for the SoC Analyst or any other cybersecurity role?
in your opinion, when does the grind stop? I feel like I would have to be learning for a lifetime really, I thought the tech was a field where you would have to always learn for your career, so I'm surprised to hear you say that the grind will stop at some point, I'm a bit happy to hear this but still cautious about that because everyone says you'l have to constantly be learning to keep up.
Hi Jono,
Great content.
I wanted to ask you where does Linux fit into Cloud security? Also have you uaed Azure Sentinel before...curious how it comparws to Splunk.
Continued success with your vids.
Thanks!
In my cloud security role, we use Splunk ES, AWS, and S1 so a deeper knowledge on all of them is definitely needed
@@chasecloud459 Appreciate your response 👍
Cybersecurity is a Jack of All Trades and you have to be fairly proficient in all of them. You need to Know Networking, Scripting/Coding, Network Administration, Linux & Windows, Common Tools like OWASP, Nmap, Burp Suite, WireShark etc and that just the Beginning. It's more too it than just getting Certifications. Cause after you get the Cert then what?? It's like a Passion.
I have the same drawer in the bottom right. 😅 It's in my living room right now.
What i have got to realize about cybersecurity is that, cybersecurity is not an entry-level industry... Once you realize that, everything will start making sense about this industry. And you will understand the expectations that comes by pursuing this career.
ah shit, this is kinda scary for me as i am doing my bachelor's in IT and gonna be getting in to my masters next year majoring in cyber ofc and doing all those valid and relavent certifications in between and hoping to get a job in the cyber field in a few years time... but the pressure is sure getting to me for sure because i feel like i dont know anything even after going through a lot of the stuff about cybersec and that's frustrating... hopefully i can keep the grind up and keep going until i make it..
