Been considering cybersecurity as a career path lately, it seems daunting taking the first steps but also very excited at the opportunities and growth. Great video with great explanations, thank you!

[@justhdbpoudhgebob]

I want to get into cyber security because I'm a single mom of 5 and I need a income boost. But I don't want to do just for the money. It seems so hard like what do all the green codes mean but Im always into my phone 😊

[@Loicmartins]

Very interesting thanks!

[@RKDTRES]

Great Video!

[@teryimasolomon1225]

great video, how can one get the trianing.

[@Tea_K821]

I got an unpaid cybersecurity internship at a school. I’m in highschool right now, about to be 11th. Could you help me plan the future, for example, how many years of college, is there a limited time i should do internship, what is the best job, or something maybe simple but good money. Things like that

[@scorpionbradford8518]

I would suggest to look online or in your local papers for an HHA health course for 2-3 wks. Some offer it for free, then do a CNA course for 3-4 wks. These are health courses, but they are quick and well paying. If you constantly look on indeed or glassdoor, you will find the best paying health jobs.. Just get your experience 1st, then money won't be ur problem. Now you can focus on your A+, Net+, Sec+, IT support, Linux, Cyber, cloud security, android/ios development and Ethical Hacking. Go on youtube, there are tons of free courses, quizzes and lab practice sites around. Then you just hv to find your niche.

[@hcmercy6786]

Just watched this and the one about cyber engineer and still can’t decide which im more interested in

[@strugglesecurity]

If this helps, the Security Analyst role typically comes before a Cyber Security Engineering role. Those titles are based on the organization but that's generally the industry standard. If you're brand new, Security Analyst is the way to go.

Do you recommend bootcamps as a starting point in my cybersecurity career? Thank you

[@strugglesecurity]

Thank you for your question! I just made a response video and I shout you out. I will be uploaded later this week.

[@konovo223]

Im here because madhat. Not dissapointed

[@strugglesecurity]

I appreciate it and MadHat has an amazing channel!

[@obsidianwolf-yt]

Is it easier getting in as a management information system degree?

[@shopcrate5687]

If this dude says get the bag or dropping gems I’m outer here 😂

[@strugglesecurity]

Neither one of those statements were mentioned in this video.

[@brianchipalaye5703]

Is software installation part of cyber security Analyst??

[@sabschools9097]

Do you recommend taking the CompTIAData+ certification if you have some experience?

[@strugglesecurity]

I have not heard about Comptia's Data+ cert but one thing to look at is the certification's reputation. If you're looking to get into cyber security, the Comptia Security+ is still the standard and has a great reputation with employers.

[@RamaKrishnaDutt-c6j]

hey! are the job openings cyberseek shows apply worldwide or are they geographically inclined to one place? please respond

[@strugglesecurity]

The cyberseek site pulls data from job postings in the US. If you are looking for more geographical job posting, LinkedIn or Indeed would be better options for you.

[@TheHarrisal21]

I know certs and experience are best. But what degree can assist with getting this role, CS with cyber classes or Information Systems?

[@strugglesecurity]

Both CS with cyber classes and Information Systems can be helpful in getting this role. It ultimately depends on the specific requirements of the job and what skills you want to focus on. It's always a good idea to research the job market and see which degree aligns better with the roles you're interested in.

[@zachzodia]

I am one... 😁

[@strugglesecurity]

Nice! Great to have other cybersecurity professionals here!

[@Tea_K821]

how many years did it take you to be one. And do you have to know python/java etc..

[@zachzodia]

@@Tea_K821 I've been in IT for 20 years... you need probably 5-10 years of systems and network engineering before you can be successful in cysec

[@bradnobl]

Asof 9/15/24 average CS Analyst salary is $114,306

[@VantaVoid7]

This was great! Straight to the point and gave examples of position descriptions and objectives with career paths and wages info. Just what I was looking for. Thank you.

Hi, I am about to probably join a cyber security analyst apprentice program at my school. I don’t know anything about Sims and stuff like that. I was just wondering will it be harder for me to grasp? I would like to consider myself a tech guy like I make music and produce so I don’t know.

[@NoSpillsChills]

How long is schooling for this? And is it essential

[@DGOODIN2024]

Awesome information thanks

[@scorpionbradford8518]

Well done video ! Thx 4 sharing.

[@BibleSamurai]

what you of the google cert to get an entry gig in this field?

[@strugglesecurity]

I've heard good things about the Google cert for entry level folk but at the same time, certs come with reputation and that cert is so new that it doesn't really have one yet. For an entry level gig, the Comptia Security+ is still the standard.
