The 3 easiest ways into cybersecurity THESE ARE THE EASIEST WAYS INTO CYBER SECURITY. SO NUMBER ONE, I IDENTITY AND ACCESS MANAGEMENT. WHY IS IT EASY? BECAUSE AT THE MORE ADVANCED LEVELS, THERE CAN BE ENGINEER BUT AT THE BASE, LIKE ENTRY LEVEL IT'S NOT REALLY YOU'RE JUST DOING ACCESS CONTROLS AND ROLE BASED ACCESS CONTROLS. NOW, THE VENDORS FOR THE CERTIFICATIONS YOU CAN GET ARE GOING TO BE ACTA THERE'S PING, THERE'S SELL POINT YOU CAN ALSO DO ENTROIT THROUGH AZURE. YOU CAN DO AWS'S, UM, SIMILAR OFFERING AND THEN GOOGLE CLOUD PLATFORM. NOW IF YOU DON'T WANNA YOU CAN DO SOCK ANALYST. SOCK ANALYST IS ESSENTIALLY THE HELP DESK OF CYBER SECURITY. UM, IT CAN GET VERY, VERY TECHNICAL AT THE DEEP LEVEL, LIKE ADVANCED, BUT WHEN IT'S PRETTY MUCH JUST DOING ROUTINE STUFF. NOW YOU DO NEED SO FOR THAT I WANT YOU TO GET EITHER SPLUNK CERTIFICATIONS BECAUSE THE THEY'RE LIKE $130 EACH. SO YOU CAN GET LIKE THE SPLUNK CERTIFIED CORE USER AND THEN GET THE SPLUNK CERTIFIED POWER USER THEN GET THE CYBER DEFENCE ANALYST. THEY HAVE A WHOLE BUNCH OF CER YOU LIKE THREE OR FOUR. ONE THIRTY EACH. YOU'LL BE SET IF YOU GET LIKE THREE TO FOUR OF THEM. OR YOU CAN DO THE BLUE TEAM LABS ON THE CERTIFICATION IS $550. BUT YOU'LL BE SUPER, SUPER NICE WITH IT WHEN IT COMES TO SOCK ANIMALS TYPE ROLES. BUT IT'S KIND OF EXPENSIVE. OR YOU CAN JUST SIGN UP FOR TRY HACK ME I RECOMMEND TRY HACK ME IF YOU'RE ON A BUDGET. NEXT, THE THE NEXT THING YOU COULD DO IS GOING TO BE GRC ANALYST. UM, AND THEN WITHIN GRC, THERE'S A TON OF DIFFERENT TITLES BUT YOU CAN GO THAT ROUTE. I WOULD RECOMMEND DOING LIKE ISO TWENTY SEVEN THOUSAND ONE. DOING THAT CERTIFICATION AS YOUR FIRST ONE. AND THEN AS FAR AS AND THEN AS FAR AS LABS, YOU CAN DO ISCA LABS. NOW ON THE SOCK ANALYST, THE LABS FOR THAT IF YOU'RE DOING THE SPLUNK CERTIFICATIONS YOU COULD DO SP SPLUNK EDUCATION. THEY HAVE A TON OF STUFF ON THEIR WEBSITE IN ADDITION TO WHAT I SAID EARLIER. SO YEAH, THEN AFTER THAT, YOU'RE GOING TO DO YOUR RESUME. ONCE YOU DO YOUR RESUME, YOU WANNA CREATE A SECTION FOR SKILLS, PROJECTS, ALL OF THAT. BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THAT MUCH, UH, SECURITY STUFF. SO THAT'S WHERE YOU GONNA PUT EVERYTHING YOU LEARN. AND THEN YOU GOTTA APPLY. 25 TIMES A DAY. EVENTUALLY YOU'LL GET SOMETHING. GOOD LUCK. THANK YOU, XINO. YOU'RE THE BEST TO EVER DO IT. I KNOW. YOU'RE WELCOME
