Great video. Thanks 🙂
What do you think about eLearnSecurity and security blue team? Those two new players seem to get amazing reviews from the cybersec. Community.
Excellent information !
Hello Jon. I just completed IT support course and want to dive in cyber security career. I just found cyber security essential online course offered by University of Washington and now here compTIA security+. Can you guide me the best option?
Subscribed at 7.85k subscribers. Gotta stake my OG placement before you hit 500k.
your opinion about Security Blue Team Level 1, despite of its lack of regonization?
CCNA? its important to know how a network works.
I’ve just enrolled in the vtech fullstack cybersecurity bootcamp which starts in January 2021. What other things do u recommend I do now and while taking the class so I will be job ready when the program is finished next July?
Hi Jon…. Is CTIA will be the best choice for threat intelligence analyst…. Please reply me
a great job reference from a top company is the best certification lol
I received my Security + and have 1 year of work experience in Cyber Security. Anyone think CySA+ is worth taking?
Greetings,
I just earned my security+ certification, would you recommend cloud next?
Thanks In Advance
Great list of certifications! I’m preparing myself to this line of job in 2021. But what do you think about CCNP Security Certification?
Will ccna get me a job brother?
What are your qualifications?
I am stuck in limbo myself. I have one of those certifications plus another as an auditor. I have been in IT for 20+ years but not directly in security. After spending months looking for a job, I can not see where these certifications are getting me any traction at all. Lack of direct security experience is locking me out of info and cyber sec jobs. The need for people with these certifications is not enough on its own. Any recommendation on how to land that first job with certifications in hand and a lot of IT experience?
Good video, but you are missing certs from ISACA.. those are great for Risk and Compliance. A side of Cyber Security people don’t really talk about, when you become familiar with controls and various frameworks it will take your understanding of Cyber Security to a whole other level. Speaking from experience in the Field
CISSP and already on my 2nd cycle it’s one to stay current on with credits. Looking for cloud next. For someone starting out do A+,Net+, Sec+ all together. It’s a good bundle and it all makes sense together takes a good 6 months to a year if you find a good place to teach all 3. That’s the fundamentals and important to take the time on before moving up.
Is the GIAC OSINT certificate good? What about the McAfee Institute certificates?
Please I have a question please who write the resume it’s the teacher or the student?
Don’t forget blue light glasses
Does he say Azure funny?
Have yet to find a job that will hire you with just security+. Almost all want a bachelor’s with 5-7 yrs experience
Great video Sir. Any thoughts on EC-Council’s CTIA (Certified Threat Intelligence Analyst) training? Thank you!
Hi Jon. Thoroughly enjoyed the course.
I have close to 15 years of work ex in IT and virtualization but none in Security. Could you please advise if I would be eligible for CCSP ?
Thanks for the video =)
I have 1.5 year exp as a SOC analyst please recommend me which certification should I do.
Thanks in advance
What about Red Team Professional?
Good information..I need security plus asap…job is waiting….do you have studying guides
Totally.. Totally against these certifications. Aren’t we already helping them make enough money by buying, supporting and learning to use their technology?!
What do you think about ISC2 cap certification
Sans vs offensive security which is greater in knowledge not in certs
Really off the mark. The best certification to get right off the bat, for "real" enterprise level operations is CySA+ followed by CISSP. They are the only main two you need to get, unless you work "exclusively" in Cloud related areas.
To be 2020, a 21 minute video to explain this is too long a video
eLearn security certificates are getting extremely popular and getting industry recognition. eCPPT is actually a far better prep than OSCP
Im new to computers and fields of computing My uncle reccommended me to look into cyber security and RPA.
If i was going to get dug into retraining from the ground up what steps woukd you take in what order,
And would a macbook be ok to get through it all?
Many thanks if you have the time to reply.
Hi Jon, if i like to pursue an IT auditor career but wan to start off from a cyber security path, what do you recommend? Thanks
Thanks man
Hey bro I’m still confused to choose CEH or security+ for soc analyst profile kindly leave a reply which one is give an entry ticket to soc analyst profile & I have knowledge in Networking
Sir comptia security + is good certificate to get entry in cyber security
As always one more good video. Thanks for the share, Jon. Looking forward to more videos. thanks
What are the best certifications
As a CISSP and previously a hiring manager: proof of work is priority one IMHO. Show your work. Blogs, projects, youtube, side hustles, open source contributions, something. Network. Contribute. Show that you can solve problems and deliver results. In the interview, be prepared to specifically describe what *you* did, not what your team or the company they work for did.
As for certs: cloud. After that: network. Get as technical as you can, and stretch out to AI/ML, data analysis, and blockchain.
i have a question is any something New in CyberSecurity after 2010s & 2020 i mean what is the New because i know all this Courses in last years 2017-2018-2019-2020
and is anything changed in CyberSecurity World???
K-Security: AnLab Security★
I will be taking SSCP in two weeks and once I’m done, I will focus on CISSP. Great video!
Good video. Thank you for saying that. You need to be on the ladder already in order to start climbing.
To be honest, the CISSP is a joke. If you require four year experience just to get a certification you’ll be better off getting your degree first.
As someone who work’s in the cyber security field… there isn’t certain cert that will get you hired. No one really even cares about certs. It may get you passed the HR scanning robot but it will NOT get you the job. The 2 thing’s you need if you want an IT security job: Education or relevant work experience and a personality that meshes with your team.
