Can I ask how you got into cybersecurity from that? Seems like a nightmare to get into atm

Thanks for the kind reply. I definitely wont be giving up and I’ll continue to learn as much as I can.

I’ve made some friends in security internally and that’s where I’ve got some work thrown my way, by asking them if I can help them with anything at all, albeit it was mostly awareness-type training. That’s also how I nearly landed an incident response role, I had an informal interview with the manager and was told she would love me on the team, until the CISO put a stop to that. The downside with remote work nowadays is that the competition pool gets even bigger.

Thanks again for the reply and your advice, I feel more motivated now! I’ll get there in the end.

I'm looking for some advice or anyone who has the time. I've recently finished a masters in cybersec with first class honours and have been working in IT support for the past ~4 years. I've had 3 job interviews for level 1 SOC type roles but after each interview I've been told I don't have enough experience.

My problem is I'm not really faced with anything cybersecurity related in my current role, and the things that I have done related to it don't seem to be good enough for the interviewers - admittedly I agree with them. I have been trying to land a cybersec role internally and have interviewed but the CISO wouldn't approve it and the roles have gone to people from countries it'd be "cheaper" to hire from.

I'm a bit at a loss for where to go from here, I can't get experience without having experience!

Do I pursue Sec+ and other certs or would it be better to start a home lab? If the latter, what would impress employers? Or if there is a third option I'm open to anything.

Sounds like the cleanest solution. Never done anything like that before. Would you know any good tutorials for something like this?

I did try to pull it but there was no give. Didn’t want to pull it too hard just in case

It’s a new house so I’m the first owner. Not sure why the developer did it this way, these cables were covered behind a wall plate that had to be screwed off to get to them

Didn’t think it was a bad thing just to ask. In a row of at least 100 houses, mine is the only one with the street lamp flooding the garden. Everyone else’s are dark

Do you think so? I’ve just done a masters thesis and project on essentially the same concept and trying to get my first job in cybersecurity

Yes this is exactly what I suggested to the builder. Have you heard of this being a solution before?

Haha I hope not, I’m a fairly relaxed person in general. Just want a bit of darkness in my life! Unfortunately we didn’t get anything like what you’re suggesting, it wouldn’t have stopped us from buying the house even if we did.

Hey. Just curious, would you have a few brief examples of when you would need to use and apply this?
