I was just out Downtown Chicago with some IT professionals with experience in cyber security. Shocking it was to learn about the day to day breaches and the increase in the sophistication level of attackers despite technology improvements by security professionals. I thought – no industry is immune to threats – this to me means there would be a continuous need for security professionals across every industry to assist organizations detect possible threats to avoid being breached. Sounds in...
I was just out Downtown Chicago with some IT professionals with experience in cyber security. Shocking it was to learn about the day to day breaches and the increase in the sophistication level of attackers despite technology improvements by security professionals. I thought – no industry is immune to threats – this to me means there would be a continuous need for security professionals across every industry to assist organizations detect possible threats to avoid being breached. Sounds interesting right? So off the back of the chat with these IT guys, I decided to enquire more about cyber security and what life is like as a cyber security professional. Evolve Security Academy came up in one of researches and here I am today in the process of ‘evolving’ as a cyber security pro.
I must state that this academy is exceptional in many ways. The course schedule was the first catch – very flexible. We had remote class work the first 4 weeks of the training. Tedious but was good exercise for people with little or no knowledge and wanting to get into the infosec space. For the in-person part of the training, we kick off at 6pm to 9pm Mondays through Thursdays and 9am to 3pm every other Saturday. I look forward to every class – Paul Petefish, our instructor starts off the class by getting us to discuss what’s in the news re data breach etc . Then we have our lecture; Paul knows his stuff. He dissects each curriculum in such a way that a novice is able to grab infosec concepts as quickly as possible. The Q&A during lectures is helpful. Our adjunct instructors are industry experts – imagine being in a classroom with such great talents! There is also the opportunity to attend seminars for free (e.g. THOTCON) - thanks to Evolve’s leadership team.
We get hands-on experience. Lab work is fun – we pen test, run vulnerability scans, harden systems, etc). We sometimes get to work in groups; this helps me a lot as I get to pick others’ brains (especially when we’re doing lab work) and ultimately expanding my cybersec knowledge. The team is a fantastic one – from diverse background, and with wealth of experience from various industries.
Chocolate, chips, peanut butter cookies etc keep the team going throughout the lecture. The class is never boring! It has been a rewarding experience so far…. More weeks to go. I recommend Evolve Security Academy to anyone looking to become a CyberSecurity pro in 13 weeks.
