    The thing I love most about your video is the subtitle. Makes it easier to absorb the information just in case of some bad hearing ❤

    Thanks because I’ll have a BS in Cyber next year and feeling discouraged. I finally passed Security + but working on CYSA next

      Congrats on passing Sec+ I think Cysa+ will be my next.
      I'm not too familiar with it but I'll do further research. I passed my Sec+ in May.
      Why are you pursuing cysa + all I know it's next after Sec+.
      I'm curious your input for knowledge. This isn't to be negative.
      Thanks

    Making cybersecurity UA-cam videos talking about breaking into the industry, is probably a smarter industry to try & break into…

    AI is wiping out Cybersecurity jobs fast… and reshaping the skill set too. Writing a multiple choice exam isn’t going to get you into Cybersecurity. A cert AND and an employee referral would be best to an entry level position might be a way in.

    Do u think i should start learning the basics of cyber security at 14? This career really seems interesting to me and i would love to start learning.

      @hitorinolegend8373 16 днів тому +3

      Yessss, Starting at 14 is a pathway to making 100k per year at the age of 25!! Even if your not sure starting at 14 puts you at such a headstart and its always good to have these skills especially with AI growing! Even if you just get familiar with the programs and the system in which things work thats fine. A lot of people like me are 21 and older just now starting to learn basics and working toward getting a degree in the field. Starting at 14 even just taking small steps is a HUGE headstart

    Hello Ben I adore the videos you post on UA-cam. Do you have any guides for using Kali Linux or Wireshark? Or would you recommend a worthwhile UA-cam channel for that?

      Start applying to jobs while continuing to study for certifications and personal projects. Take classes at a community college to save money.

    tech field is done, its over saturated worse than healthcare and AI will continue to destroy newbies. Dont do it kids, you will spend a minimum 10 years of your life to be considered master level, if you study hard, and what then? wake up, read the reviews of people putting ion 500+ applications with no calls backs.

      @@wezh6808 if you want to put in 1000 applications go for it, but depending on how hard you wanna work and how many years you wanna be in school, anything health related will always be in demand. Nothing wrong with chasing your dream, but you better stand out and be a master of your field before you even apply. Setup a home lab, start teaching yourself and use that on a resume.
