As we discuss, Cyber Security is not about Pentesting or Ethical Hacking. It’s about acquiring fundamental knowledge in Information Technology.
It’s about passion, resourcefulness and obtaining education through certifications and formal education.
We also talk about CompTIA certifications which are recognized globally and form a great career path in cyber security. These include:
CompTIA A+
This is the preferred foundational entry-level certification for IT operations and technical knowledge.
CompTIA Network+
A leading certification for aspiring network professionals. This cert will help you form your skills in networks and IT infrastructure.
CompTIA Security+
Every IT professional must have this certification to develop the critical skills and knowledge required in a Cyber Security role.
CompTIA PenTest+
It is an excellent certification for anyone who aspires to be a penetration tester.
There’s also a shortage of talent and companies are willing to pay more and hire a less-skilled workforce in cyber security.
Additionally, the industry offers four, distinct types of roles suited to different interests, skills, and career goals. These include:
1) Cyber Security Administration
2) Incident Response
3) Cyber Security Forensics
4) Cyber Security Analysis and Pen-Testing
