Hello, and welcome back to this next TomCast from GuardSight; we are a tactical cybersecurity-as-a-service organization dedicated to helping businesses protect their data, their assets, and their endpoints.
Today we are going to talk about starting a career in cybersecurity. Joining us are two of Guardsight’s amazing cyber analysts, Jacob Bilyeu and Tate Lykins. Say hello, gentlemen! So, for this discussion, I am gonna ask some questions of you to get your perspective on being a cyber analyst.
Jacob, we’ll start with you, and Tate, I will ask you the same (tune in to hear the answers):
- Is this your first position in the cybersecurity field?
- Had you applied to other organizations prior to being hired on at GuardSight?
- What initially drew you to working in cyber?
- What was it that made GuardSight an organization you wanted to work for?
- What is it like working for a tactical unit cybersecurity organization as a whole?
- If you had the opportunity to speak to people showing interest in either starting a career in cyber, or switching a career to cyber, what would you tell them?
- Any parting comments for our listeners you would like to share?
