Evaluate my offer
I have some experience in information security area, looking to enhance my knowledge further. Is information security a good career option? Are there any certifications that are recognized by top companies? Thanks
SANS certifications are your best bet but can get expensive if your employer isn't sponsoring it.
Sans is garbage
+1, Garbage
No certs or anything, still got plenty of interviews and offers, the money is good.
How long have you been working directly in cybersecurity? How did you get your start? How do you think the cybersecurity job market will be over the next 3-5 years?
No professional full-time experience in security, fresh out of school. Started with CTFs and lots of curiosity. Pretty good, I guess? I'm aiming for 300k in TC in about 5 year, should be doable.
Does those certificates actually help? And how much comp can we expect for these roles?
What does the role do exactly? Like cyber detective? Cooperate with law enforcement to solve crime?
Depends. Code audit, pen testing, building secure systems etc..
Doesn’t sound like there are a lot of writing code
Prepare for extreme boredom
No? Maybe at IBM.
Pay is similar to software engineering, usually higher since it's a niche within software engineering.
Yes, very hard to find and at a premium.
Do you forsee the "shortage" of info sec skills staying around for a while? What kind of changes do you see over the next 3-5 years in the info sec labor market?
