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.
Which part of cyber security entices you? Because it’s a large field and it’s like saying you want to be a programmer.
Red Teaming
Offensive security by deliberately picking at something till it breaks and you get shell.
Blue Teaming
Making sure things are patched and up to date, reviewing Nessus or Qualis(?) scan reports and resolving the findings.
Those are 2 examples.
I want to get into ethical hacking and penetrating. Cuz I’ve always thought that is cool and fun. And to help find ways to stop or prevent things like ransomeware.
