I want you to know that out of all the cybersecurity channels on RUclips, yours has been the most accurate, practical, and realistic. You deserve more subs. Anyone reading this, this guy knows his stuff.
thanks mate, I appreciate your support 🫡
@@UnixGuycan you tell us about the free TAFE cert that's being offered? What do you think about it? Pros/cons?
@@archipiratta It's good. It's free.
@UnixGuy
Thank you for your usual videos and quality breakdown, what laptop specs do you recommend for a beginner.
Thank you.
He definately seems to know what he is talking about
Man i've been lost for so long. All i need is a roadmap and you laid it out perfectly. Thank you sir
welcome here! glad you found what you’re looking for :)
Yet again. Another phenomenal, easy to follow pathway video. Thank you so much for the info.

Mr. Unix Guy, just saw your video (just released 1 hour ago) and again, how informative with your step-by-step process that you map out for this career! You without a doubt Sir, are the best of the best! I love your knowledge, experience and tenacity! Keep those videos going as I always take away a chunk of knowledge from them that I didn't have before. The videos also provide motivation and determination to succeed as in my case! Just as simple as follow the path you provide and NEVER QUIT!!! Never listen to the toxic garbage, just keep going! In my world and prior career, you would most definitely be leading a Division of Investigators!!! Have an AWESOME day my friend! Joe
Thank you so much for your constant support Joseph, I really appreciate that you are a member of this channel, your constant support means a lot to me. All the best my friend 🤝
That is certainly one of the most valuable videos about security in RUclips history. Most respect to UnixGuy 🙌
thanks mate 🫡
Here with yet another golden roadmap I’m still following the old one and almost done. I have learned a lot and my resume looks much better and I feel so confident.
so glad to hear that 👏🏻
Your videos give me so much confidence! Definitely following your roadmap on becoming a cybersecurity analyst. Already done with 5 of the 8 courses for the google cert! Thank you so much for the informative videos and portfolio building!
You got this 👏🏻
I’m currently in the Air Force serving on my 14th year as a military policeman. I’m looking to transition my career to cybersecurity. I really appreciate the information. It helps me develop a roadmap.
hey mate, you will do really well, I know a lot of military and law enforcement officers who made the transition - good luck!
I actually left the Navy after 14 years. Never regretted it. Never been happier. Good luck to you bro.
good suggestion by ram_bam, if you can get your employer to pay for SANS training, do as many as you can :)
Thanks for your service
Looking into join the airforce soon. Thinking of going for 1D7X1A = Cyber Defense Operations, Network Specialist. But know it's not guaranteed you will get your job Haven't sign anything yet. Any tips or advice.
I love how precise and clear your content is. Thank you 🥰
Thank you Nour :)
really love your videos, I’d be so lost without your videos. Thank you so much

Love all you videos. This one is probably your best work! Very helpful for me to focus on a particular skill set as it pertains to cybersecurity. Thank you so much for all you do for us!
glad it’s helpful 🫡
Great video as always, I am doing exactly that, I scaled a lot of things down and have leaned heavy into more hands on in AWS for solutions architect with a specialty in security, so much so I've paid and will for the next 3-6 months for Cloud Quest which is amazing by the way for cloud hands on experience. I do plan on getting more into security automation after I become proficient in AWS. I am also still trucking through the last few 6 classes at WGU and I still do some coding here and there in python to keep me familiar until I can deep dive into it.
Best of luck!
What an absolute gold mine of Cybersecurity training information!!
🫡
What would we have done without this channel? For me this channel is like pure gold. I mean there are alot of people on youtube that don't know what they are talking about, but I always knew that the unix guy talks clear, confident, and straight and honest. Thank-you for all the the work you put in😃

Thank you for the guidance. Great video!!
My pleasure!
Thank you so much, you gave me hope! Your videos are gold!! Greetings from Italy

Another great video. Thank you so much!

I started off my cybersecurity career landing a remote GRC role straight out of boot camp. I already had a business and decided to take advantage of my training during the pandemic. I want to build on my technical skills. I've obtained several free certifications as a veteran and I plan to pivot to Cyber Security Engineer. Honestly, I was already comfortable in my business. I just really enjoy cybersecurity also.
always good to do something we enjoy! well done
This is great advice!!! Thank you!!!
Glad it was helpful!
This video gave me so much motivation I’m starting my cybersecurity journey and boot camp starts Dec 4 thank you for the excellent information
I'm so glad!
Wow. This was actually useful. Thanks a lot!
glad it’s helpful :)
This is another top notch video. So helpful!
thanks mate 🙏🏻
Super great and very informative content!! It was worth listening every single minute!!👌🏾👈🏾
Glad you found it helpful!
You’ve changed my mind. I was going for digital forensics specialization but now automation is definitely on my radar. Thank you so much for this information!
no reason why you can’t learn both. As you’re approaching your job search, the more skills you have the higher your chances are of landing a job
@@UnixGuyso if thats the case can we do more than one security engineer specialisation roadmap
@@stressedbutblessed2751 yes
Thank You, invaluable information. I am going to start the google cyber sec. Course. I am a beginner and switching careers from Nursing. This helps to develop a solid plan.
Best of luck!
I'm trying to focus on a specific cyber career, but every time I come across one of your videos, like this one, I change my mind. So many choices! I appreciate all your hard work. Thanks.
pick one roadmap and follow it for 3-6 months, all the skills you learn are interchangeable and transferrable!
I LOVE YOUR CONTENT‼️ Thank you for being resilient & laying out the road map to become a Security Engineer. I was curious about this path too. This helps me out more than you know😃🙌🏽 Please keep defying the naysayers, gatekeepers, & haters. You’re a truth telling inspiration to us all. Cheers mate!
Best of luck!
Just another informative video as always. Really helped me a lot
🙏🏻
thank you so much the part when you tell now you can start applying i found really helpful because beginners(like me) don't know when they know enough to apply for a job. awesome video made a lot of things clear!!
You're so welcome 🫡
You are amazing! Love you videos they really. Thank you Thank you for sharing all your knowledge

You should do a detailed video about Python integration into the cybersecurity space. Love your content, thanks!
hey mate, thank you! So this video basically explains how Python fits in 😉 these courses will basically assist you in getting good at python that you can use in many areas of cyber
Hi, I completed your Cyber Security GRC course and added it to my resume. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the world. I do hold IBM and Google cyber security Certs, however, it's been hard to find a job since I am transitioning from a healthcare career. Most jobs require CompTIA + Certs, and I am planning to take the exam soon.
Hi E. Blake, I emailed you today because you are the first person to complete the course so I wanted to hear your thoughts!
Since you’ve just completed the course, it’s a good time to update the CV and start applying to jobs every single day (even if they ask for comptia, apply anyway). With your healthcare background and your recently acquired GRC knowledge, you will be an asset. I strongly believe you are very close to reaching your goal!
Unstoppable! Thank you.
🙏🏻
thank you for making this video. I have no cybersecurity knowledge and this video really helps.🙏
you got this 👏🏻
I have always loved your content thank you

glad I found this channel!
Welcome aboard!
Thank you so much for this wonderful video...❤
My pleasure 😊
If you would come out with courses I would definitely take them! Thank you so much for this!
thanks mate 🫡
I'm taking the google cyber security cert and it's great, of course I'm not taking it for the certification itself (though it doesn't hurt at ALL) but the information inside of it is amazing and helped me prep for like 90% of security +.
glad to hear that 👏🏻
started watching your videos from today hope it will help me
Best of luck!
Thank you for your recommendation! I'm trying to switch my career path from IT faculty to Cyber Security Analyst.
All the best!
Thanks a lot Boss for helping me to clear all my doubt
Always welcome :)
Thanks for the video, it contains great information.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much sir, in the beginning i really confused about the starting point to become security engineer, after watch this video my thought much clearer
All the best
Good video fren.
Really good one.
👍
Thank you for the video 👍. Got my first job as a security engineer, and I very much agree that role is mainly networking focus😅. Now i see this as a sign to move on to other roles for my continual development.
congrats on the new job! it’s an excellent start, now you can do certs and upskill!
do you have a degree?
what educational route did you use to get to where you are?
@oscarm.4078 I have a degree in another field, not for information security. I've done security bootcamp(not useful), ccna, sec +, personal labs and coding projects. I completed more vendor specific certs after entering the role.
@@njams. I have a degree in business
how do you recommend I get started if not boot camp?
amazing clear vid
Glad it helped
Always on point ❤
Thank you 🙌
Best cybersecurity RUclipsr out there!

Really cool guide! I would like to see a similar video roadmap/recommend courses for pentesting/ethical hacker! Is there any plan to make a video about this?
made one four months ago 😜

I currently work as a systems administrator. I am looking to make the switch to cybersecurity very soon. Good luck, everyone!
You have a fantastic background - best of luck!
Fantastic content. Your videos are helping me narrow my focus and remove the unnecessary steps during my first year in cybersecurity.
Here's a question I have. I see content for Security Analyst and Security Engineer. Where does the Security Administrator fit in the mix? Is there a pathway for this discipline?
it’s not a discipline, it’s just a title (which is honestly meaningless as I explained in the video). Pick a path and follow it through to the end and you will reach your goal
@@UnixGuy been in IT for 10 years, cyber full time for 1. Thanks to your content for helping me to narrow my focus so that I can do what is essential. You are making a difference!!
Great video, thanks a lot. Been looking into application security and was wondering what your view of the CASE cert by ec Council is and whether it's worth doing?
I believe the certs that I recommended will get you to your goal in the fastest and cheapest way possible :)
Unix Guy is among the top 5ive Cyber/Tech RUclipsrs I follow. The fact he started he's gonna pi$$ off the gatekeepers shows he got his finger on the pulse of what's going on in the education/training for Security Careers.
Who the other 4
thanks mate
Thank you for making these videos, they are most excellent! Through you I have found out about BTL1 and I'm now half way through the course. My question is, do you have any experience or opinion on the BTL2?
yes BTL2 is great :)
@@UnixGuy Maybe a future video?
Thank you so much for your videos should be done by August next year with my undergrad in cyber security while also taking all the Try hack me and hack the box courses you have mentioned. Following your road map has been the best path to my future career.
good luck!
*Resume Advice Pls*
Thank you for always providing such useful advice and insights. I have been following your channel for a while now and have completed a majority of the guided projects and certifications you have recommended. I would like to know if I could put these certifications as experience on my CV or just projects? I have put the skills obtained in the skills section but Im having a dilemma if I should put the labs in the professional experience section. I have created a github and started putting my projects and certifications there. Coming from a non tech background, the only relevant experience that comes to my mind would be the Blue team level 1 exam. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
hey mate, well done on doing the projects!
Add them as both skills, and projects but also as ‘experience’ under ‘cyber security student’ as I showed you in this video:
ruclips.net/video/LFlsDm8w36A/видео.html
I’d like to focus on CTI and mitre mapping/reporting because I enjoy writing and researching. I’ve been going down mitre database rabbit hole and binging reports it’s great way to learn attack concepts and mitigations but I feel like I have no hands on skills. Not sure where In industry I fit in.
This is part of what a cyber analyst does:

Thanks Unix guy. definitely needed for people confused like me.
Glad I could help!
@@UnixGuy make video chapter for this video as step 1 , 2 ....
it already has chapters...@@sanjayrocker9528
@@UnixGuyI mean link timestamps
@@sanjayrocker9528 nah, that's excessive just watch the video the links man, it's not that hard
Hey is it possible you can do a AWS version? I can't find any other RUclipsr who explains things as easily as you do, thank you!
hey mate, as explained in the video, Aws is very similar to azure so follow this and just do Aws cloud practitioner and aws solution architect then the security specialty
Thanks for the video (and the newsletter!). I have a doubt, despite watching the video.
Currently I'm studying Cybersecurity (a one year course) that I took looking to be a pentester. Now I have learnt the different Cybersecurity routes (Forensics, System and network hardening, etc) but the both that ring my bell are Pentesting (I have a background and experience as a fullstack web programmer) and DevOps.
Which routes are best suited for both options?
if your heart is set on Pentesting, then I recommend you focus on that 100%, follow this roadmap:
ruclips.net/video/8K7iAJ9BNl0/видео.html
@@UnixGuy thanks!
I am really into this, and will try my best to go through the pathway. My only concern is the bearing costs of all this coursera courses.
we all had to work, save up, and pay. training isn’t free
Thanks man. But I also need the beat in the background please 😊😊
haha it’s a track called ‘motivation’ i found it as royalty free stuff for youtube
Great job there. I really love this video. Is there any particular order in which one can take these courses? What is I want to follow the pentest path? Any tips?
hey mate, this roadmap is for ‘cyber security engineer’.

Would love to see a video on your favorite feeder roles for Security if your interested and what they do/what you think it would be like to work in said role
Already made a video about it 😉

Hey can you maybe do the same video for Malware Analyst/Researcher?
in the future yep
good info

Thanks for all your videos and giving us hope in life. Im 30 and decided to switch to pursue my career in cybersecurity. Would you recommend I should follow the exact guidelines that you have perfectly described?
hey mate, yes follow the plan as it is and you will get to your goal!
@@UnixGuy Thank you so much!
I have been following you for a while, and your videos are extremely useful. I can tell you're very knowledgeable. Could you please do a video on how to become an IAM (access and identity management) engineer for someone with some cybersecurity concepts and also for complet beginners in cybersecurity? Is it worth pursuing it compared to becoming Cybersecurity Analyst?? Thank you in advance!!!
thanks mate! I answered this question in this video:
ruclips.net/video/YHDnygWvgaI/видео.html
@@UnixGuy thank you so much for the fast reply. I will definitely watch the link you shared!!!
This is so valuable. I’m almost done with the Google cybersecurity certification. Do you think it’s necessary I get the comptia security + certification as well or do you think I could follow this roadmap and get an opportunity?
congrats on finishing the google cert! the security+ is optional, you can definitely start with this roadmap right away
Engineers are born and some are made. Its a natural talent
pretty sure you’ll need to learn the skills
OMG Its love at 1st sight(video) hey man did God send you!!?🥰🥰 I have gotten a glimpse of my old classical router and switch, firewall physical device world totally being de-fuking molished by the coming world of "NFV"(network function virtualization) where physical chassis will be going away and CSU/DSU, Router, Switch, Firewall, Proxy will all simply be software virtual machines running in a VM Host and now we will have to learn YAML and NETCONF to even interact with them and was thrown into a total life crisis so i am looking at a new ladder of cybersecurity and wondering "what if" and you spoke to that pain without knowing.😭😭😭
glad you found the video, it’s a sign and now you have a concrete plan to follow :)
Hello man! Thanks for your great information. I’m wondering which one should I specialize my self so I can work from distance. I am living in Sweden so I would love to move somewhere else that is warmer climate and people
all specialisation can be done remotely. Pick something you actually enjoy
@@UnixGuy thanks for your answer
I’m a supply chain major worked in e-commerce and eventually landed working for Samsung in marketing. I want something very specific this time around and remote is the biggest plus. I am considering a boot camp.
hey mate, I strongly advise against doing bootcamps. Follow the course recommendations in my videos, you will get there faster and with a fraction of the cost
The bootcamp is $10k but they have a job guarantee. Not using a school and not using a bootcamp how can i show a highering manager that i am a serious option? @@UnixGuy
Hiiiiii, love your content. I'm 19 currently studying to get into the field. Can you do a video on the programming languages i need to know to be a cybersecurity engineer? Thanks for everything😊
