Thanks for your video. I casually sent some applications for work study after I watched your video and I got selected for a course in my Wishlist. Wish you the best!
that’s awesome!! which course are you doing?

@@hps5461 that’s one of their best courses! you will enjoy it! I have a new video coming soon where I talk about it :)
@@UnixGuy Awesome! looking forward to it.
This is exactly what I searched for online! Thanks
glad you found what you were after :)
Ty for the advice regarding the work study
no worries at all, good luck 🤞🏻
Thank you for this video. Is there a training material included in this
yes SANS courses provide you with training material
Hi UnixGuy 👋
Thank you so much for beneficial information.
It necessary to have a experience before taking this training. Appreciate if you can do a video regarding SANS training (they are practical or theoretical and etc).
Hi Ali, some SANS training have pre-requisite some don’t, you’ll need to read the description of each training before doing it, it’ll contain all the information that you need
@@UnixGuy Thanks a lot for response👏
@@alimoh6402 u welcome!
Thanks for the videos. If I may ask, is there any other site you are aware that I can cybersecurity Certificate as a beginner for a very cheaper rate. I tried out comp TIA security+ as you said however its still very much expensive for me. I'm still a student with no source of income and the dollar rate in my country is extremely high. Its serious difficult for me to pay $326 for security + training not to talk of the GCFA or GCIH.
Not at the moment, but in my next video (coming in the next few days), I go over some cheaper alternatives. it’s still an investment. There are free university courses called MOOCS where you can learn for free, you need to Google that as I havent used that in a long time
@@UnixGuy Thank you very much
@@rferabelgrab your 🥚 🥚 and get a job man there are no hand outs in this world, work hard and save. If you really wanted the certification you’d work overtime even as a student and save for that certification. You don’t want it bad enough.
Can you do the program and certification if your a beginner with no tech experience or do I need to first get my A+
yes you can, no need for A+
Just a minor clarification. These are not SANS certifications. They’re GIAC certifications. SANS is a training organization that offers training for the GIAC certs.
They’re sister companies, but these are not SANS certifications.
That's correct, I used them interchangeably out of habit but you are correct :)
blah blah blah. If you supply both the bullets and the guns, it doesn't matter. :)
Hi can i take GIAC from sudan as a sudanese ?
And what are the pay methods?
best way to check that is on GIACs website
Can you please Give me some steps to be ethical hacker?
Im currenty student and wish to use my free time to increase my knowledge towards my goal of being ethical hacker from zero
Currently studying security+ cert
But i feel like i need guidence to the next step.
Love your channel btw
Hey Oscar, security+ is a good start, I recommend you do eJPT afterwards and pretty much follow the footsteps of this individual that I talked about here: ua-cam.com/video/CePhURvdyqk/v-deo.html
So these two certifications (GCFA and GCFE) are the hallmark that allows you to work on crime scenes, computer forensics, etc? As mentioned, I'm in school for a four year in CS, but these are the most expensive certs I've ever seen lol and if you fail the test I assume you pay full price to take it again?
I wouldn’t say hallmark, as a lot goes into the hiring process more than just certs. In this video I go through the field of forensics, and offer some cheaper alternatives:

@@UnixGuyInteresting. I will check it out. I can't imagine paying 7 to 8k for a cert, but I assume a BAS in CS alone won't take me far without certain certs.
@@MidnightVentures yep check it out and remember the work study option that I talked about here makes it cheaper
@@UnixGuy And you mentioned this option is avaliable online? In person wouldn't be viable for myself but I would be interested online for $2,500
@@MidnightVentures yeah they have online. I wouldn’t rush into doing SANS certifications if you’re still a student. google and find free resources online and exhaust all free options first before comitting to expensive SANS stuff. Like I said, I talk about cheaper alternatives in the other video
Hi. I have a bachelors degree in Business and want to transition to cybersecurity and have a ISC2 CC certificate. I have applied for SANS bachelors, however they are advising to take undergraduate certificate in Cybersecurity for getting a job. Does their under certificate program with 4 GIAC cert including help me get my first job in IT? What would be your advise?
Hi Deeksha, yes their program is fantastic however it can be very expensive. If you can afford it, go for it. There are alternative cheaper solutions here as well:

Hi What is your opinion on cybersecurity online bootcamps?
Have no experience with them, I find them pricey. I prefer certifications and university courses.
Sir can AI AND ML replaced cyber security.. Is the future of cyber security secure?
Watch this: Will Cyber Security jobs be replaced by Artificial Intelligence?

Hi. I have done my sec + in Jan 24 and BTL1 in Feb 2024. Do you think I should go for a recognized cert like gsec? Or work more on a practical cert pike CCD?
no definitely continue with practical certs lime CCD! well done! hope you’re applying to a lot of jobs!
@UnixGuy yes sir. I am. I dont have previous IT experience and currently I am in my masters(Cybersecurity). And graduation date is 2025 May. Should I be applying to help desk jobs as well? Or just the ones related to cybersecurity.
@@hammazahmed1289 you need to spend the time and watch my videos to understand the process, start with this one:
ua-cam.com/video/csXVHpDNM4M/v-deo.html
@UnixGuy thank you. Very informative. Another question- I start SOC path from HTB. I was thinking of starting my CCD in April and complete the soc path from HTB first. You think that's a good move?
@@hammazahmed1289 yes
which GIAC cert should I do, if I want work life balance career?
That depends on the company more than the specialisation to be honest. I have a playlist of cyber security specialisations, watch it and pick the specialisation that you prefer most:

@@UnixGuy cheers matey... does Perth has good IT/Cyber Security jobs in general? Acc to you is Perth a nice city to live in? w do u live by d way? :)
@@vive928 Perth is nice and has oppprtunities, its just smaller than Sydney so naturally it has less opportunities but it’s nice
@@UnixGuyyour comment is helpful. What do you think about Canberra?
@@francisfrancis1153 lots of government opportunities for cyber, citizenship is required. Small quiet city
Its better to do their bachelors pgm or masters pgm...because they have included many GIAC certs within it and it is much better than taking individual certs.
my problem with their degree program is the price tag. You could pay the same money and get a degree from the best universities in the world like Carnegie Melon for example
The price is just way too high, I hear that the training is good. I am actually interested in GIAC Python Coder (GPYC) and maybe some other important Blue Teams Certification.
If you want to learn python, don’t pay for a training, there is tons of free material online, just type ‘free python training’ in google.
If you want some blue teaming certs, watch this video:

@@UnixGuy I know Python already I just want the cert lol
@@MalamIbnMalam do what you want, if you know it then the cert is pointless. Up to you
I'm currently in a computer engineering program and got accepted into sans technology institute degree program. I already have some networking experience. Is it worth it to switch to the sans degree program?
it is very pricey, do it only if someone else is paying :)
@@UnixGuy My company will pay for it.
@@TheHarrisal21 perfect! go for it
I have a question.
What is the thing that SANS has but other companies do not have, so that make SANS is unique than other companies in this field?
Strong brand name recognition (they were first to the market), top notch instructors, material is condensed in a great way.
There are good alternatives now that are cheaper, but SANS is still great
Now it's 979 USD ...:0
those are much better snd for a fraction of the price:
ua-cam.com/video/wLgkX6F3ZDA/v-deo.html
8k USD thats like 7 or 8 lacs for India i could buy a nice car with that 😂
this is an old video and I don’t recommend those certs anymore, watch this instead:
