My current job is ok but it’s not exaclty wwhat I want to do long term. I’m not good at programming, but I do want to work on it. In the mean time I’d like to go into cybersecurity, however I’m not sure where to start and if it would be a waste of my bachelros in C.S.

    and if it would be a waste of my bachelros in C.S.

    I would get past any notion that something is going to “taint” this achievement.

    In your own words - what do you believe a job in cybersecurity entails?

    In your current role - in what ways have you interacted with software, cloud or a server’s security?

      Ik CS is more programming oriented and I already have regrets in life and wouldn’t want to feel like I’m making the wrong choices

      I believe cybersecurity entails testing vulnerabilities and applying fixes and helping to make systems much more secure

      I have 6 years IT experience (nothing network related) more just fixing hardware and removing viruses.

      But my current role is just deploying software to agencies
