Cybersecurity Careers Are Evolving - Here's How.

Many of us in the security industry, whether just starting out or seasoned professionals know the cybersecurity industry, in terms of career prospects, has been quite turbulent. There are many reasons why this is perhaps happening, even despite the industry's obsession with a so called skills shortage gap. Ultimately, I am starting to subscribe to the idea the requirements and expectations of a cybersecurity professional are experiencing a evolution. Whether these evolved requirements are good or bad is subject to interpretation. It's been difficult for me to see more of the good than bad. I want to break down what and where I see the changes happening in the context of career changes, skills, and job hunting. As we all know, perhaps the most impactful change occurring in the industry is AI, but I also think there has been a general shift in security investment as well. 🐕 Follow Me: Twitter / X : https://twitter.com/collinsinfosec Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_collinsinfosec/ ProjectSecurity.io Discord Server: https://discord.gg/bWymWhCv9p 🤔 Have questions, concerns, comments?: Email me: grant@cybercademy.org 🎧 Gear: Laptop (Lenovo X1 Carbon Ultrabook 6th Gen): [https://amzn.to/2O0UfAM​​​​​](https://amzn.to/2O0UfAM%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B) Monitors (Dell D Series 31.5” D3218HN): [https://amzn.to/2EXlgRF​​​​​](https://amzn.to/2EXlgRF%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B) Keyboard (Velocifire VM01): [https://amzn.to/2TEswfd​​​​​](https://amzn.to/2TEswfd%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B) Headphones (Audio Technica ATH-M40x): [https://amzn.to/2F4Tvq6​​​​​](https://amzn.to/2F4Tvq6%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B) Work Monitors (Dell U4919DW UltraSharp 49 Curved Monitor): https://amzn.to/3yQmDhM Desk (FLEXISPOT EW8 Comhar Electric Standing Desk): https://amzn.to/3S9OxvG 💻 Cybersecurity PC Build Parts [Processor] Intel Core i7-13700K 3.4 GHz 16-Core Processor: https://amzn.to/3OlTTUK [Graphics Card] Asus DUAL OC GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB Video Card: https://amzn.to/3OE0bkd [AIO Cooler] Corsair iCUE H100i RGB ELITE 65.57 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler: https://amzn.to/3DEUUT9 [Motherboard] MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI DDR4 ATX LGA1700 Motherboard: https://amzn.to/3Ol9La8 [RAM](/C:/Program%20Files/Joplin/resources/app.asar/2x "2x") Corsair Vengeance LPX 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 Memory: https://amzn.to/3OlsgeM [HDD] Seagate IronWolf NAS 8 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive: https://amzn.to/3DFdc6K [SSD] Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive: https://amzn.to/3KpTnnQ [Case] Corsair 5000D AIRFLOW ATX Mid Tower Case: https://amzn.to/44Rjaxf [Power Supply] Corsair RM850x (2021) 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply: https://amzn.to/478wC1r [Fans] Corsair iCUE SP120 RGB ELITE 47.7 CFM 120 mm Fans 3-Pack: https://amzn.to/44R4myD
