    I learned so much last couple of weeks this podcast though put it over the moon for me. Seeing Brodus tell his story and Chloe tells hers is truly special. I thank you for the questions for SOC Analyst I have been studying them. I'm in a Bootcamp to break into Cyber and its pretty intensive for 6 months but your podcasts and shorts give me that edge. So thank you!

    Love her openness. Just rounded up my Splunk/Linux classes last month. It's just amazing that I could understand her and the topics around splunk that she mentioned. Especially when she started talking about data onboarding, syslog, API, and forwarder. I was literally smiling.
    Kudos to my tutor.😊

    A NOC role (with the right organization) is an underrated path for transitioning to a SOC and SRE role. Infrastructure monitoring is vital for any NOC and deep-diving into various log sources and their use cases for potential observability is a great skill to have in this market.
    Splunk really allows quality insight to complex enterprise IT infrastructure & applications, which is a field agnostic skill that can be used anywhere in tech from systems to development.

    • @TechTualChatter

      I agree especially if you’re in a NOC that will show you different things

    I stumbled across you page today watched a few videos and I honestly have one question ….. I’ve been in oil and gas for over 15 years my body hurts I have no time for my kids and I want a career change. I’ve started googles cybersecurity certification just as a starting point ( I know it takes more then that ) I am willing to take several steps to get to where I need to be … my question is what steps do I need to take. A honest straight forward answer would be greatly appreciated….
