This cyber security specialisation is hands down the most underrated specialisation. Cyber Security Audit or sometimes referred as Cyber Security Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC).
I explain what the job is like in this video.

The devil is in the detail , you mentioned it: internship. I have a feeling that the person needing someone who did the job wasn't too concerned about prior knowledge or experience. Still, good for you, I'm not undermining your achievement, even an internship can be hard to land mainly when there's a wave in that particular skill or area.

I have worked as InfoSec Auditor for Deloitte. Moved to GRC role. This role is 100 times better as a job. More management involved. More Creativity. You see actual staff. Audit is nice, but GRC is better. I personally think these are two different types of jobs and profiles. It is like ISO auditor vs ISO Implementer(even the Idea why two different certification exist and different experience required). As GRC states - Governance, Risk and Compliance. First word here - Governance. So you have to Plan for future. But Audit is only about Past or AS-IS in best case. I personally do not think it is proper to Put CyberSecurity Auditor and GRC guys together, even though most companies Do, as they use outputs of each other. Again - it is my IMHO :-)
@UnixGuy
@UnixGuy Жыл бұрын
I agree with you, but not everyone can get a chance to do one or the other, a lot of people get asked to wear many hats, and mind you the certification path is pretty much the same. Many people in big do both ‘audit’ and GRC

I just started my first full time role as an IT Compliance Auditor but it appears the role will function more as Audit/GRC. I just completed an internship at a bank in a GRC role, so this new position will allow me to get more hands on in the audit process to understand implementation solutions and resource planning when meeting with stakeholders and communicating with management and ultimately board members. I agree the roles should be separated. Our InfoSec dept is new (I'm the first team member), so as we build the dept and increase the bandwidth of our dept needs eventually my manager can carve out a position as the CISO and I can move up to the InfoSec Mgr position and we can separate audit, compliance, and gov/risk mgt. All that to say, a lot of companies are starting or structuring their InfoSec depts as businesses take cybersecurity of their organization more serious.

I was not really excited in getting the certificate because I'm not too happy in finances.

Regarding the Cyber Security Auditor carrier path, I don't have any experience in the IT industry but have worked for more than 15years in certification and auditing to IEC/ISO standards for electrical devices (eg IEC61010-1, IEC60601-1). Do you think if I got the certifications you mentioned I would be appealing to companies for hiring? Would I also need to get some technical certs as well for backup?

Main issue with CCNA while I am all for more certs, is its Cisco based, granted Cisco is found in over 70% of enterprise networks, the real hitch here is you will be on the network and architecture/infrastructure side. Those roles tend to terminate at decent 6 figures but rarely past middle management if lucky, mainly Network Architectural jobs and that's it. So just be aware of it. Pass it soon as possible and then head straight into Sec+ and go through the 24 hours of free training that QualysGuard offers online, they are massive when it comes to risk/compliance nationwide if not globally (can't remember I'm currently less than 2.5 weeks from sitting for my net+. Quizlet 6$ a month with free trial, never memorized the ports faster than running through all 4 test variations. Best of luck! Believe AND conquer!

It's very true doing infrastructure like firewalls requires after hour or on call, I am thinking to move job as an auditor, but my concern is travel. How much travel does it require? Do you switch job as an auditor or your job allows you to work multiple tasks (firewall, penn test, auditor, forensics)? My company doesn't allow me to multiple security jobs, unless I switch position for good. Thank you for sharing!!
@UnixGuy
@UnixGuy Жыл бұрын
that will depend on the company itself! Generally speaking, audit at banks for example you probably won’t need to travel. Even in consulting, it depends on the company really. I switched jobs, it’s very rare for a job to get you to do many things because Pentesting for example is a specialty on its own and its extremely hard to stay on top of everything. Consulting companies can allow for doing many things so again depends on the company

What entry-level job would lead into an auditor position? I’m Sec+ certified and I have 4 years working on policy creation and documentation, vulnerability analysis, and a lot of audit functions including physical security of physical crypto keys for half of a military installation. I loved the auditing nature of the work. Then I did work for a consulting company with government clients for one year before the contract was terminated early to reorganize. All of this to say, I still feel entry level due to the fact that each organization is vastly different and my experience was tool specific and flexible for me. Looking to study for CISA but I would like real experience as well.

Hey Vamsi, you have a very good experience and are positioned perfectly to do more cyber related tasks! Work life balance can be company dependent, but I say best thing to do is to also find something that you genuinely love. Security+ is a good start and once you do it, I think you’ll be a good candidate to tackle the CISSP, it’ll teach you a lot and it’ll open doors. The recommendations in this video are for audit/GRC, which possibly has the best work life balance. I have a playlist of all the cyber specialisations that I talked about so far, watch them and pick a specialisation that you think you’ll love and cert up in that area.

Hey, thanks for your advice. If I work at at bank (recently started) in the governance team (data protection) and would like to follow the auditor path? Do you recommend going for those certifications and stay in the bank or aim to get into the 4 firms you mentioned? I am finishing my cyber security cert at TAFE. Also, I checked the CISSP training and it’s pretty costly the training and 5 years experience in the field is required to take the exam. Which certification should I am if just starting. Thanks!

Hey, first of all congrats on getting your role, you are in one of the best positions to be at the moment! You don’t really need to work in consulting firms, you can learn everything you need in the bank, get paid more than consulting and have a bettet work life balance. The most important thing for you is to do well in your current role. Go above and beyond, learn the boring things that no one wants to learn, always be positive and willing to do the work - that’s the most important thing, I elaborate more on this in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/havThGOtjdimh5Y Second thing is focus on getting your TAFE cert, learn everything in the course to the best of your knowledge. The certs I mentioned (CISA and CISSP) need 5 yrs of experience so something for the future. the next cert for you should be CompTIA Security+ and learning on the job :)

Isn't GRC much more than Audit? How about leading governance activities (committees, forums etc., ensuring adherence to policies and standards), risk (risk appetite, stability and resiliency, KRI) and compliance (ensuring effective controls are in place)? Also there is a bunch of regulatory and external exams to deal with. Curious about your thoughts here.

To be honest most of the learning will happen for you is on the job rather than from certifications. ISO is a good and any foundational cyber security certification like security+, this way the requirements for CISA or CISSP become 4 years instead of 5 Cloud certs are great because it’ll give you knowledge of the underlying technology which will make a stronger assessor as you understand what you’re assessing. Policies is something you learn on the job, but security+ then certs from ISACA and ISC2 council are great next step

Tell me one thing Sir, Can a guy like me (Network Engineer) get a job as Auditor/GRC after doing these certifications? Or do i need to work first as cybersecurity engineers or analyst in order to get a CISO kind of positions??? Please help in this topic Sir. Or it will be better if you can make a whole video in this topic. A lot of experienced guys might have the same question as me.

hey mate, unfortunately therr is currently no good training that can take you to becoming a GRC professional yet! im working on something cool that will fix this soon so please sign up my weekky free email newsletter because I will announce it there first @ unixguy.com Meanwhile, I recommend you start by doing this cert to gain some cyber security knowledge and to bridge any gaps you may have as a network engineer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bH2shpuubpqAebcsi=kUiCSvyaQmrvaVou

Wouldn't auditing and GRC be different? GRC is more about implementing the controls for compliance and risk mitigation, whereas auditing is about assessing existing controls to determine whether the organization has a comprehensive security posture and then making recommendations. GRC is basically doing the work, and auditing is giving a second opinion on the work. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but that is my understanding. EDIT: After doing more research, I think auditing can be considered a subfield/specialization within GRC.

It's boring and technically unsophisticated that's why. I haven't worked as one but on my previous job a few years ago I had to review pages and pages of Id's to ensure that they were using the right libraries, datasets etc and yes, it can get tedious at some point but you had to do it and do it right. So even if I wasn't an auditor, I have a good idea what it entails. And as you said, these types of jobs are not expected to respond on the fly or be 24/7 available.
