No one is sharing this info. All they say is security plus this and that. You are actually sharing what will get people hired. Massive respect.
🙏🏻
Exactly! That's why I love this channel so much, he goes straight to the point and share real knowledge
@@puucca 🫡
Huge respect sir!
Can’t agree more.
I think this is what every security analyst requires. Not expensive certifications. Its all about having knowledge about the tools and building projects.
agreed
Edit to my previous comment on here: I've just landed my first IT helpdesk/Dispatch role with an IT company!! After watching all your videos and taking some of these workshops and adding them to my CV I have finally got my foot in the door! I'm going to keep adding more and gaining more certs whilst gaining the experience in my new job. I start in 4 weeks! Then hopefully I can get into Cyber Security as a SOC analyst! Thank you!
That is awesome! so happy for you!! I hope people read this comment and get inspired!
@@UnixGuyThank you! I hope people do read this and get inspired as your videos have helped me accomplish this and I will forever be grateful! Thank you again for your amazing content and can't wait to see more! I'll also keep you updated when I start!
@@theexclusivecorner 🫡
@@theexclusivecorner I know its been only a few days, but how's the job so far?
@@bats9218 I don't start for another 3 weeks. When I wrote the first comment I had handed my 4 week notice in my old job 😁
You are a goldmine of information, nobody else gives such actionable, practical advice. Other people just say do Sec+ then CCNA etc. etc. Thank you so much UnixGuy.
🙏🏻
Indeed this channel is a goldmine.Thank you keep up the good work
@@UnixGuyOnce we become proficient as a Cyber analyst, how does one go from there to a Security Architect?? Thanks so much for the amazing knowledge and expertise!! 🙏
@@mochabettydo cisa
Lmao. I did exactly this!
I'm not exaggerating, this is the only clear and coherent and direct video made on this subject ever.
🙏🏻
No waste of time, straight to the point, 100% value😊
🙏🏻
I am glad to come across your UA-cam channel! You are doing something which no one is doing and really helping each of us trying to change our career! Great respect 🙏
You are so welcome!
Out of all the videos I've seen on YT about getting into Cyber Security, you are the most helpful of them all. I love you channel so much man. You inspire me to push through.
thanks for your kind words I really appreciate your support 🫡
Thank you so much for giving a clear and useful pathway to the beginner who just started from scratches. There are tons of information and its really hard to figure out which one we should choose and in what manners. Please keep posting such videos. We really appreciate your effort.
🫡
this is probably one of the best videos you have done this is the guided projects ideas i been looking for, thank you so much
glad to hear it 🫡
Thank you very much for taking the time to put this video together for everyone. There are tons of videos on the net that talk sabout things to help someone get a job in cyber security but all of the info they gave has always been the same copy/paste type of advice, which is mostly just getting the certificate.
Your video really broke down exactly what we need to do to gain experience after we get a certification.
🙏🏻
This is exactly the video I needed right now, very grateful 🙏🏼
Also, for anyone studying for Security+ I recommend you do some of these trainings first. I did not, but it would’ve been immensely helpful for me to understand the practical implications and connect the dots so to speak
Thanks for sharing!!
I’m so happy I found your channel as soon as I decided to make a career jump into cybersecurity. Your content is a goldmine of knowledge. Thank you!
🫡
The top cybersecurity channel on youtube. Thank you for providing this much clarification in a new and vague industry, especially for those trying to enter. Continue doing what you're doing! Great content as always
🫡
Best advice on CyberSec on UA-cam...I also wish I had all these resources when starting out. Fantastic stuff
👏🏻
I've been feeling daunted by what to tackle after Security+ but now this has given me direction. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help!
Finally someone who explains what is needed! Thank you very much for that! And as an idea, I would love you to make a video like this to start cybersecurity but going into the cloud path 😊
Thanks for the idea! will definitely write it down :)
You gave me the motivation to switch my career to CS last mont now i have my google cs certificate and was lost between so many advices and channels, here you are again, showing me the right path again.. cant thank you enough! 🙏🏻
You got this!
Have you had any luck with landing a job after completing the Google CS certificate?
Thank you so much for posting this! Your video is so clear and concise, the best one I've seen so far for us beginners. :)
Glad it was helpful 🫡
This is just amazing. Can't believe how helpful you are. Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Not only breaking it down but showing how to apply it to your resume. Gold.
🙏🏻
This is a straightforward, no BS outline for anyone looking to get into the field. The value in this one video is priceless. Thank you for your time, for sharing you knowledge and for making the video content easy to understand. Keep up the great work!!!

Dude this is a crazy repository of information! Thank you! I myself have been lost on the first steps of this interesting career path and no other UA-camr has broken it down so easily thank you thank you thank you!
glad you’re here my friend 🫡
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! This is literally where I am at right now. Like mentioned by others, no one is sharing these.
I have been watching videos and doing research since I decided to pursue a career in cybersecurity and you were the first one I watched, and you keep it real! MASSIVE MASSIVE RESPECT!
🫡
Wow. As someone studying for Security+ right now, I can't wait to get it done and start these projects. Thank you for such valuable information!
Best of luck!
This is great information! I wish I had all this information back in 2016 when I started my cyber career. I'm still going to go through all of this training to add on my resume. I love how you also showed how to add all of this to your resume! This is gold!!
You got this! go smash those goals 👏🏻
You don't understand how much you helped my mind with this video. Thank you so much!!
Glad I could help 🫡
You are becoming my fav cybersecurity youtuber! Thank you for the insight!
🫡 I’m honoured
This. Is. AMAZING!
As someone who just started out as a security analyst I must admit that everything in this video is no less than very useful information. Thank you for sharing it!
🫡
This is a great video. I always heard people talk about doing projects to help your application and resume but never mentioned what projects to complete. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
You are really the best, i was so keen towards cybersecurity but didn’t knew where to start, but with your guidance i was able to design a roadmap and get started. Thanks a lot, you the best!
glad to hear it 🫡
Thank you for your channel and your knowledge. Watching your videos for the past 2 weeks encouraged me to sign up for the Google cyber sec cert. thank you for providing a blueprint.
Wonderful!
I am very happy that I UA-cam recommended me your video. I’m a post grad cyber security student almost at the end of the course and I was still wondering how to get an interview and how to present myself on a resume. This has been a huge help. Thanks👏👏
Glad it was helpful!
Massive, massive respect and praises to you, my man. I'm almost done with post graduate program. But I could have just as easily followed your advises and gave me more satisfaction to my learning. You've given me a clear path of what I need to do to get my foot into Cybersecurity.
Glad I could help!
I wish you all the good things in this world. What a wonderful helping guy!!❤️
Much Love and Respect
🙏🏻
This is the type of content I was looking for literally no one gave me a clear roadmap like this. Thanks so much, feels like i've found a mentor 😇
Glad to hear it!
I want to cry... Thank you so much for this detailed video on how to get hands on Project experience for Cyber Security.
I was very overwhelmed for the past few weeks, on how and where to go to start my learning, and you've cleared this in a simple yet
rich information video. I feel lucky to have stumbled upon your channel!
Thank you!!
so glad you found it helpful! once you do the projects you will find that you’ve learned a lot in a short period of time :)
Just cant describe in words how helpful you are.Respect++

good luck my friend 🫡
Have you landed a gig yet?
You motivate me so much with realistic and actionable advice and guidance. I have 5+ years in Asset Protection / Corporate Investigations field, and have decided to begin transferring my investigative and analysis skills to cybersecurity. Currently studying for the CompTIA cert; hoping that with my current skills, a few certifications and some personal projects under my belt, I will be able to land a job within the next 6-12 months!
good luck!! your experience is definitely transferrable
@@UnixGuy thank you, sir! Keep up the excellent content! 😁
Wow! I've been looking for this for a while, but have never found it so detailed. Now I'll finally get pratical experience I've wanted. Thank you so much!!
my pleasure :)
Man you are best content I ever seen thumbs up I will share your vedios so a lot of ppl could follow you
thank you so much my friend. I truly appreciate it 🙏🏻
Thanks for the information. I have an undergraduate degree in forensic psychology, but during that type, I discovered cyber security through a module. Now, I have enrolled on an Msc course in cyber security and started the google Security course. I will keep track of your videos for guidance on knowledge while building a portfolio 😀
👏🏻👏🏻 good luck
This is an absolutely incredible video for anyone wanting a roadmap as a lot of poeple don't know where to start. Ive been following your videos and I've done my Google IT Support Cert and will be starting my Cybersecurity Cert next followed by the Blue Team Level 1 but I will be definitely throwing all these in there before I take the Blue Team cert and then updating my CV with all this valuable information. This is such an incredible video, thank you so much!
👏🏻👏🏻
The best part is that the Google Cyber cert goes over things like TCPDump, Bash, Python, SQL, etc. Their virtual labs were so helpful. (I’m a beginner too)
@@jasantiago185 Yeah I can't wait to start it soon!
You're the man, I'm a web dev and I always have an appeal for at the very least the basics of Cybersecurity.
go for it 👏🏻
Thank you so much!!! I’ve been searching for this, definitely doing all.
Glad I could help!
You are super amazing for sharing your knowledge on how to break into Cyber Security. Because of you, I've started the Google Cyber Security Professional Certificate at the beginning of September 2023. I've learned so much from it and I can't wait to learn more and more especially from all your recommendations!
glad to hear that! keep up the good work 👏🏻👏🏻
I just finished 3/8 of the courses for the coursera google cybersecurity certificate. I can't wait to complete it, get the CompTIA security+ and apply these tips to my resume!
You got this!
Massive thanks for these. I've been learning these but was worried about the experience
Glad to help!
Thank you! this is some great info! I’m currently studying for the Sec+ but this will help reenforce skill!
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing video! this is exactly was I was looking for. I finished google certificated and Security+ and I am actually getting interviews but Im getting rejected of all of them because of the lack of experience. This is the next step, I am going to do all those projects. Thanks!
perfect timing! go smash those projects 🙏🏻
Have you found a job yet?
Thank you so much. I was starting to develop imposter syndrome due to my lack of experience. I spend most of time working as a pharmacy tech. I’m half way through the google cybersecurity certificate then sec+. These additional projects for my resume is great for experience and the resume.
You can do it!
Man I gotta tell you, I really love your channel. So much free game

your content is exceptional. Thank you so much!

Great suggestions, keep up the good work UnixGuy!
🫡
This is incredible content. You are helping so many of us newcomers to the field. Thank you so so much, UnixGuy!
🙏🏻
Being in the IT industry for over 12 years and transitioning to cyber security now, this info is gold. Many certs provider should consider adding hands on labs with this information because it does make the whole different in the real world scenario. Thanks for sharing.
Good luck with your journey
TestOut offers a free trial of all their courses for like a week. I used their labs in school and they feel true to life. I'm guessing they are run in containers.
That Family Guy clip came out of nowhere!😂
😆
I have been trying to get my first job in cybersecurity and I found your videos…thanks for sharing this!
all the best
IM loving. Gonna be passing Sec+ next Wednesday, so this was much needed as to where to start after!
👏🏻👏🏻
Easily the best cybersecurity channel focused on helping others and I don't say this lightly.
A couple of months ago I was completely lost doing the CCNA thinking it would get me a cyber role. Once I saw your video on how it was a waste of time, I rearranged my priorities and follow your advice.
Not only have you saved me time, I've also learned a lot from you and I am greatly thankful for that.
so glad to hear it! can’t wait to see where your journey takes you!
What exactly is a viable path to get into cybersecurity with no degree and what is a realistic time frame to accomplish this?
I was also thinking of foing ccna but quite lost on somewhat on a path to follow.
Thank you very much sir ... I am on my 3rd yr of Engineering degree . My passion is to get into Cybersecurity Field ...
You're my heroic guide for achieving that sir ❤️✨
👏🏻👏🏻
This is a GODSEND! Truly appreciate your videos
🫡
nah.. this is the best beginner video i've seen on cybersecurity.. thanks for this
thanks for your kind support, glad its helpful 🫡
I am actually in the process of finalizing my Google cybersecurity cert and your video could not have come at a better time. This a goldmine of info and i cannot thank you enough for taking the time to share all this. Most of these complementary courses really solidify one's understanding and with enough practice anyone with no prior experience in cybersecurity will stand tall during interviews and explain it all with confidence. A big thank you and you have a new sub
Glad it was helpful 🫡
I’m also doing the Google certificate as well. Are you going after your security+ as well?
@@DreamBig9912 I am. I finished my Google course two weeks ago and I'm studying for Sec+ right now
I just started my Google cert. I am going to add these labs in so I can practice as well!
@@DreamBig9912I'm halfway the course, but I was saving money for the Comptia Security + but you're talking about the Security+ only, which one is better to do after the Google course?
Compared to other avenues of information I have been looking at, you provide a very comprehensive view of how to get started and provide the best tips I've found. Hiring managers rock! Thank you so much for sharing the information.
my pleasure 🫡
huge respect for introducing all these resources
🫡
Thank you for sharing this, often feels like a dead end once done with the Certs. Really appreciate this sort of content. 🙏🏾
🫡
Thank you for mentioning tcpdump, that's something I use regularly to monitor customer traffic. I never thought to put it in my resume or profile. Also, those projects look very useful.
Glad it was helpful!
I just want to leave a comment to say thanks. Finding a mentor is still difficult today and I'm trying to break into cybersecurity but still haven't found anyone interested in helping me. I'm Security+ and Network+ certified and I was a little bit stuck because I didn't know what to do next. I'm trying to find that first job to get some experience though. I see in all your advices through all your videos an opportunity to improve and find the right way to finally land that first job. It does make a difference what you do.
thanks for your kind words! go out there and crush it my friend 👏🏻
Wow this is the best video I’ve seen about this topic in a while!!!!
🙏🏻
Thank you so much for this information! I’m 1 year away from finishing my WGU degree in Cybersecurity and I had no idea these resources existed.
Glad it was helpful!
Watching this made me realize that I made such a great decision to make you my UA-cam mentor. I’m glad a couple of the skills mentioned here I’m currently going through them and super stocked that there’s more practice I can do in Coursera, HTB, and THM!!! You’re a stud man! I hope one day I can meet you in person and shake your hand!
thanks man and all the best, can’t wait to see where your journey takes you! hope we meet one day too 🤝
In my late 30's looking for a career change. Always had a passion for Tech, but due do to circumstances and lack of information I never had the opportunity. You sir is like the mentor I never had or the friend that I wished I had in my earlier years. Thank you for everything you do and sharing your knowledge. Be blessed.
so glad to hear it! enjoy the journey my friend!
I'm in the same exact boat and I can feel you! Don't give up, we can do it!
Same here. I'm a game artist and I'm wanting a career change. I graduated IT but never got to use the skills that I learned.
Same here guys in the process of finishing google cert then I’m going do everything he mentioned
Best wishes. So, there are a lot of us in the same boat now :)
Like always your videos are amazing and very informative. Thank you so much for your this roadmap. I’m on my first semester at a community college majoring in information assurance and cyber security and your channel has been a blessing to me.
glad you’re here!! keep me posted with your progress!
@@UnixGuy Thank you so much! Yes I’ll keep you updated.
You are a piece of gold brother. Really appreciate your help. God bless you

Everyone tells to do very expensive certification like OSCP and CEH but no one tells these free and extremely good resources.
Thank you Sir

I am a recent cybersecurity grad and this is by far some of the most useful information that I have received. Thanks for building a bridge.

Fantastic roadmap. Just what I needed. Thank you UnixGuy.
Glad it helped!
This video popped up after I watched one of your other videos a couple of days ago. THANK YOU FOR THIS INFO! Im in my early 40s and am currently enrolled in a 2 yr degree program for IT. Im planning on changing career and trying to find a way to get my foot in the door of the IT field. I've applied to various IT based jobs over the past year but so far, no luck. What is holding me back is lack of experience in the field. I even had a couple of my professors review my current resumè and they both said the same thing - great resume but I lack actual IT experience. Im going to check out these programs. Hopefully if I can get some practical experience, I can at least get a call for a job interview. Crazy how there is such a high demand for IT professionals out there and so many jobs openings but yet people still have a hard time breaking into the field.
good luck!!
I'll watch this tomorrow as it's too late here in Switzerland and should be going to bed finally😅 but thank you, got my like already ❤
thanks Romy! you’re the firet commenter, curious to hear your thoughts tomorrow :)

More videos like this PLEASE!. This one and the other one with the hands on were the GOAT of videos on this topic.
thanks Kelly! which other video you’re referring to so I can make more of? :)
@@UnixGuy it was the fastest way to get into cybersecurity where you talked about the projects to do and put on the CV to get hired like the blue team cert etc. actually that was one the GOAT and this was the encore. It was REALLY good. A different perspective. It makes sense as to what recruiters need to see. Had I not watched I too would have thought just the comp Tia certs were enough. Thanks for the wake up call!
@@Kelly-we5bs glad to hear it Kelly 👏🏻
Thank You Sir! I am a workforce development trainer and I had a number of students that did call Comptia A+ and security plus and they ran into the same issue around experience. Thank you so much.
👍
Honestly, great channel. I was confused if I have to do the Network+ and Security+ certification to get started.
This video gave a clear guidance what to do...
Thankyou Unix Guy!!
Glad I could help!
This is very helpful. Thank you for making this UA-cam video. I am currently studying for Network +.
Glad it was helpful!
Incredibly useful, thank you UA-cam for suggesting this guy!
Happy to help!
thanks so much for this, im going to follow these projects in unison with my classes and after google cert, would love to see a video about intermediate projects you like in a future video!
for sure! good luck!
My brain is buzzing and I hope I can comprehend this in my mid life, because I’m not gonna stop trying!! Thank you for sharing your immense knowledge!
You got this!
You Outdid yourself in this video! Thank you so much!
🙏🏻
this is actually really inspiring. I'm doing the google cyber cert on coursera rn and it feels like a giant waste of time. I spend half the time skimming through repeated instructions and duplicate learning modules , a quarter thinking about what im going to do once i finish the stupid cert and a quarter actually doing the work.
you’re definitely not wasting time, you’re learning the basics, you can build up from there :)
Just what I needed right now. Thank you
Happy to help!
