This is probably not a common question, but is it possible to work in Cyber Security and have a desk where you are standing up? I don't like the idea of working while sitting down for several hours, as I have found being on my feet has been a healthier lifestyle for me.

I am a 30 (soon 31) year old who has been working in healthcare in laboratories since I was 17. I am Married and my wife and I are both considering going back to school with some degree of savings. We have no children. My question since you've had a background in all 3 disciplines is at the 2 year associates level what are the job outlooks like? We would perfer to go to school 4 years directly but would incur some very heavy private debt. We have thought of doing cybersecurity or CS for our associates and saving for 1-3 years before going back to school for our BS. What is the better career field in this regard in your opinion?

I love your channel and insight into these fields. But let me make this input as a computer Scientist. Computer science is the foundation for theoritical knowledge in any discipline that touches digital technologies of which Cyber Security, Computer Engineering are part. Infact, Cyber Security ( broadly and precisely refer to as DIGITAL SECURITY) is a branch of Computer Science. Mathematics and Physics on the other hand are the foundations of Computer Science, especially Mathematics, and that's why you can do exceptionally good in your career as a Computer Scientist if you are good in maths. Computer Engineering mainly focuses on Digital Designs and Implementation but you can't design a system if you don't understand the atomic variables, theories and laws, relationships guiding them. These information are solved or learned in Computer Science precisely under LOGICS. In summary, when you have advanced in Computer Science beyond the walls of academic environment, you will discover that any Digital Technologies: Robotics, AI, Digital Forensics, Security, Hacking, Apps Dev., Etc all have their fundamentals in Computer Science.

Always computer science. I made the mistake of doing cyber security degree and realized how underdeveloped the degree is. The fact that I paid $30 Practical Ethical Hacking Course by the CyberMentor and learned 1000% more than a $1100 Ethical Hacking course required by my cybersecurity major is insane. There just few labs and all textbook. It’s very important to compote course curriculums in your college courses because 9/10 times a course online has more quality/quantity. Not to mention cybersecurity degrees do not have much variety when it comes to courses. The only cybersecurity courses my college has are basic cybersecurity fundamentals, ethical hacking, Networking, and Audits. So, a big waste of time/money.

Hi, I come from a non IT background but few years ago I enrolled in a cert 4 in cyber security and had learnt that I am passionate about this field especially the technical aspect of it like server administration and penetration testing and cloud computing. My passion led to me to succeed in this course but unfortunately I never had the chance to work in this field as my applications were unsuccessful because of the lack of work experience. Few years on, and now I want to get back to this field, and am interested in doing the bachelor of cyber security.

Is this still valid? I want to do a 3 year degree in Computer Networks and Cyber Security but i spoken to some in the feild saying that it's uselss and the ppl ik in the feild who i asked about it told me that doing a degree is useless compared to the certifications. I was thinking about going into electrical engineering and do the certificates on a side.

The question in the title itself is going inside my head for a while as I'm trying to figure out what to do for my higher studies and I'm glad I found your channel (from another video of yours). Computer Science, Software Engineering and IT are quite popular courses here in Sri Lanka, but Cybersecurity on the other hand is much less popular here, even a single Government University doesn't directly offers that course though there are pvt universities and other options for that. I was all set to follow a CS degree but the idea of doing a cybersecurity degree crossed my mind as I really like privacy protection, and ethical hacking, not to look cool, but to respect and defend peoples' privacy (I know it sounds a little silly). Do you think cybersecurity would be bad for a person who is not so much interested in Hacking like you said about yourself (being the best hacker) as those mindsets benefit to progress through the career path ; but rather planning to do cybersecurity just for the mentioned preferences. Thank You!

There seems to be a misconception when comparing Computer Science vs Cyber Security or any IT related field. Computer Science is like Physics to Engineering. All categories of Engineering are subsets of Physics. I.T., Cyber Security, A.I., Machine Learning, Data Science, and Software Engineering are all subsets of Computer Science.
