Another awesome video. Your advice is sound about only doing one learning thing at a time. I'm juggling a couple, including TCM and a cert (I chose Network +) with college. It's cool though, I'm a kid in a candy store with it all.

[@CyberTom]

Well if you enjoy it then by all means :)

[@AbdulrahimInuhuo]

Hay bro I am a Nigerian too still don't know how and where to start.

[@victorumanah609]

I feel blessed watching this video. I'm from Nigeria, I developed an interest to pick-up Cyber security as a career BUT got frightened initially over the whole process. With your 3steps guide into this path, I'm optimistic I can do it. Thank you so very much

[@CyberTom]

You can do it! God bless!

[@DORMlN]

don't hack me brrro

[@omgitsaishat]

Hey Victor how is it going? X

[@shadowB33]

Nigerian prince 😭😂 Well done oo

[@alephdental6373]

Dedication, Discipline. Focus on one thing at a time 1. On line courses : ~ Udemy ~ Try Hack Me ~ TCM Security 2. Certifications : ✓ CompTIA Security+ ✓ GCIH ( do ONLY if you're in a role that pays for it !!!! ) ✓ Cisco CCNA 3 . Set up your Lab • Kali Linux

[@CyberTom]

Great video mate. Some good tips. I've used most different training providers over the years but I've actually not touched the TCM stuff outside of KZbin, I'll need to give it a look. I'd be interested to see a tour of that sick setup behind you. Your production quality is super high!

[@CyberTom]

Maybe I'll do a video of my setup, thank you! 🤔 TCM is great! Highly recommended!

[@chiomachukwuma2859]

Great video! Thank you for the insights. I am currently going the traditional way but the idea is to follow the route you have highlighted afterwards because CS is a vast area that one needs to keep reading up, practicing and learning. Thanks

Hey @CyberTom, what jobs do you recommand for entry level in cybersec? I heard SOC analyst is a good starting point. I got my comptianet+ and sec+, google cert and blue team lvl 1. Been in IT for 5years. I don't want to work nights tho, what is your opinion? Thanks!

[@CyberTom]

A security analyst or security specialist is a great place to start in my opinion!

[@ChristopherNealBUSHIDO49ERS]

[@alessandropizzocaro7506]

I love your videos bro I just started watching them as I'm interested in cyber security. Sadly I have zero experience in the tech or IT industry. I'm 29 and I'd love to get into the cyber security world but I'm slightly pessimistic as i don't know anything about it. Would you say it's possible to land an entry level position within 2 years for me, given i seriously commit to it, i study hard and get some kind of qualifications? Thanks, keep up the good work

[@CyberTom]

I would say yes if you spend those years getting an associates and an A+ cert!

[@jeboduntaiwo3308]

I’m also in your shoe and am really interesting ready to commit into it as well

[@ambrlouise]

2 years? I've heard people getting bachelor's in less than a year and getting jobs

I'm in this state as a newbie. But, with the same intention to become a cyber security expert. I want to give it all it takes. Please, can we be friends and grow together? While we learn from well established experts like @CyberTom.

[@Twyler68]

Thanks for the information. What would you recommend for someone who is basically brand new to coding in general before jumping in to cybersecurity?

[@CyberTom]

I would say learn Linux and python!

[@fxdient8027]

Great video like always my question is that while doing a certification is it good to also learn more about the field like self researching and getting more info and knowledge about it aside from the certification and maybe learn a nd improve programming language or is it just certification and self knowledge of the field and no programming or just depend on the certification and start self researche/development later when the certification comes to an end? How is it?

[@CyberTom]

One thing at a time! Always!

[@nostalgicnow6001]

I’ve been using udemy for years now definitely the best .. the trick is to wait for the deals to hit . But I’ve JavaScript react python networking and now a bit of cyber security

[@CyberTom]

Awesome!

[@drgonzalezg]

Hi bro, I just discovered your channel! Is there a roadmap that you suggest to learn cibersecurity? Or maybe a video you have that talks about it? I want to learn about it but want to get stong foundations first

[@CyberTom]

I do have videos but I suggest degree and security+!

[@derekhalford187]

I really appreciate the input, I've just purchased the CCNA course from Udemy. I've been software testing for the last 23 years and want to transition into Cybersecurity.

[@CyberTom]

CCNA is a great cert!

[@francisfrancis1153]

I can attest to the point on TCM security. I think the courses payment model recently changed.

[@CyberTom]

I am doing a course on their as well :)

[@francisfrancis1153]

TCM Security is my best. I'm lucky to buy some of the courses as stand alone before they started the subscription model. Their current price is still affordable.

[@CyberTom]

Agreed!

[@stevenrussell2915]

What’s your opinion on best online schools for someone working full time and on a budget? Thank you!

[@CyberTom]

WGU!

[@balkonee]

Great video man. I could really use some advice on where to start. I have a Bachelors in Criminology (pretty sure that wont help) and was wondering what would be my best option for starting. Does my degree basically mean nothing to companies and should i just do courses. I am thinking about the Google cert course and saw your vid, but im now confused if that would be a waste of time. I want to break into cybersecurity but I'm overwhelmed by the options of either chasing courses or getting certs. I feel like i should try to get an IT entry job first than break into cyber after i get some experience. What would be a good place to start?

[@CyberTom]

So you degree is fine, just try to get a help desk role and while you do that get the security+ and or ccna.

[@balkonee]

Do help desk positions have low requirements and are any specific courses you recommend to do the security+ or ccna certa

[@CyberTom]

@@balkonee security+!

[@balkonee]

@@CyberTom are there any specific courses that can prepare me for the security+ exam

[@tbizzy2580]

Do you use multiple computers at once to work in cybersecurity?

[@haloomads2558]

is using smartphone enough for the meantime to finish my cyber security course? I don't have a degree on IT or ComSci however, i know to use computer, such us installing OS and other basic stuff and terminologies etc. I haven't buy a PC or Laptop yet because i don't need them before i put my interest in cyber security.

[@CyberTom]

Awesome good luck!

[@suleimannasir]

What are the basics i need to know before starting, maybe things like python,HTML and others

[@CyberTom]

Networking!

Im 44 and coming out of being a stay at home mum for the past 20 + years.

So im watching a few videos and taking tips. Thanks for putting information together for use to get going in a new career. Its very much appreciated. God bless 🙏🏾❤️

God bless you too, start with a BA in IT if you can, then network+ and security+

The type of seal palsy I have besides typing with my one finger. The only thing I can do for myself give someone direction and tell them what I need.
