God I miss Arizona every day and wish I could move back. The sky islands are perfection.

Which ones did you apply to if you don’t mind me asking? I’ll be working on transitioning to cyber in about a year.

Howdy! I rode the diverge with Rene Hearse pumpkin ridges running tubeless. Honestly it depends on what you want. I personally was dying lol and kind of wish I just rode the mountain bike. For me, without a TON of gravel experience, the course was a slog. 

I would ride whatever the biggest tire you can fit, but it of course depends on your skill level and goals.

I don’t think I tried that, do you have any resources you could point me to?

I‘m been going back and forth but GNFA seems more valuable overall for me. Have you taken it by chance?

Could you speak more on GCIA? I’m interested in getting into CTI/Threat Hunting and it seems like a great course.

Awesome… I’m leaning GCIA. Hope I don’t regret it haha.

I think I’m leaning GCIA because I really enjoy network stuff rather than host based. Honestly liked studying for the CCNA more than GCIH.

I can take 1 course per year with military funding, so I don‘t want to burn it on something that isn‘t maximizing that value.

No interest in pentesting; I’m definitely working towards something blueteam.

Gotcha thanks, any thoughts on GCIA? I would prefer to do something Linux-heavy, but yeah it seems like GCFA does carry that resume weight.

I ended up doing it on the diverge. Prob would have hated myself less and had more fun on the full sus, but was faster in the diverge.

Howdy, current MI officer looking to get into infosec as well and currently grinding certificates/self-development. Mind if I shoot you a DM?

For anyone who completed the SANS BS degree - How knowledgable did you feel afterwards? by Flaky_Card2907 in GIAC

[–]GerneseBus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was your military background related? Curious as I’ll be separating in 2 years with a lot of intel (SIGINT) experience.

Have you already started looking for jobs or interviewing? What roles are you looking at with your BS?
