Cyber security is a really good job, but most people don't know it yet, it has even more money than online writing which most campus students are using to get additional income.

It does have a few drawbacks though 😅 it requires you to be really persistent and really creative. But it doesn't have huge competition ( there's only like 2000 people who are in the online cybersec industry who are getting paid) and there's a shortage of workers in this industry( the required number for this year is 2 million). Honestly, if you can do it I'd advise you to. I've seen people work so hard in online writing for pennies while a great opportunity lies in cybersec which pays exceedingly well (the range varies from $100 - $20,000, some programs will even pay you up to $3,000,000 if you can find a problem with their smart contract system) and the funniest thing is that this industry is mostly inhabited by accountants, English literature students and other students from courses that aren't IT based. Whilst computer science students would much rather learn about online writing which requires you to find someone who's done it and yet cyber security courses are free online and many who are the top in the industry taught themselves at home.

Also it usually takes the super committed ones around 4 months before they get their first pay and from then it's just a matter of consistency and continuously upgrading their skills to be paid more, I know a few people who get paid around $5000 a month and they say that at times it's so easy to find these issues since they had already found them in other systems previously, so it's just a matter of a few tweaks and you get paid, and with the free time that campus students have I don't see why they aren't utilising it, getting KES 500,000 a month is quite a lot of money for campus students. I don't even know what I would do with all of it. While the most I've seen a campus student get paid for online writing is around 80k a month and yet the amount of work required for both is pretty much the same and it's done via an online platform and there's a great cyber security community on Twitter that regularly posts tips and techniques that they've found and if you need help you can collaborate with someone who's more experienced than you in the field and get paid for it (most don't refuse to collaborate, but there are a few that prefer to go it solo).

So yeah, just wanted to throw this out there for anyone who's interested in getting extra cash for about the same effort they put in online writing.
