    If I knew about this. I would have tried this first. I got a 14 month class. Witch I’m kinda not happy with.

    You may have already done this, but could you do a video on what we should be looking for in a laptop specific to cybersecurity? I know the easy answer is 128gig ram and 2 tb of storage. But for those of us that cant drop 3500 bucks on a computer, what would you say?

    • @sip_sizzurp496
      @sip_sizzurp496 Год назад +4

      16gb ram and Intel i7 quad core CPU is a good start for laptops to run multiple vm's the storage space isn't too important as you can easily buy external SSD if you need extra. 32gb ram is better if you want to run 10+ vm's but for a start 16 is enough. How upgradable the laptop is can help if you want to add ram but many have it soldered on so check with websites like crucial to see if the laptop you desire is capable of being upgraded. Hope this helps I was recently doing research as I was buying a laptop for college but one that can also run Kali well.

    Hi Sandra, awesome video 💯 thanks.
    I want your opinion on this. I have 5yrs helpdesk experience and currently out of work.. I am looking to either go into cybersecurity because I think I won't totally waste my help desk experiece or change to data analysis. I don't know which degree I must settle for, I already have a diploma in aeronautical electronics engineering.

      @@St_Mo if you can study for and pass CompTIA A+, that would be a great start. Network+ goes well with that as well. If you are going to do anything with Gov (if you have a clearance already), security+ will get you in the door.

    • @trentseibel
      @trentseibel Год назад

      Joshua - data science is huge right now, but it's pretty deep. Cyber will likely be a quicker and easier one to crack into. You can do that without a degree if you get the right certs and have background.
      Also, keep in mind that a lot of cyber is network based. If your helpdesk was network based rather than just desktop support, that will be a big help also.
