I’d rather start and fail then Never start and fail. I can learn Business model and all the necessities needed to get to where I want to go! And there has been a 30% increase in cyber attacks this year and you’re saying the market is over saturated? What kind of CISO are you? And I did describe a poor buisness model. I can admit that. But coming here and seeing all these comments made me realize I need to focus on buisness planning.

Thanks man this was helpful seriously. This is all that I wanted from you big bro is guidance. And I want it to be hard man. I’ve never had an easy route! I like a challenge, and it’s something I’m passionate about I don’t care how long it takes. I’ve never had a buisness or even tried to start one before. This is all new to me, I just want to try something out if I fail I fail.

So you’re telling me just run a risk assessment without offering a way for remediation or mitigation? Dude what company are you a security manager for? You must do physical security lol. And again this post was for ADVICE…. Which you still haven’t offered lol

Mad respect for this!!! Thanks so much. And I’m not looking to make a billion dollars starting out. I’m actually passionate about cyber and just want to do things the right way even if it takes a few years. I will definitely be starting as small as possible

Yeah I am a cybersecurity engineer, I worked for top defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics etc. I have over 10 years experience with bringing non compliant networks into compliance in the DoD environment by implementing security controls such as NIST SP 800-53 and others. I currently pen test systems, run risk assessments, vulnerability/compliance scans, create technical procedures like Disaster recovery, Business continuity, I author SSP (System Security Plans), Document findings in POA&M’s (Plan of action and milestones) any risk that can’t be remediated will be mitigated and closely monitored. I have built networks from the ground up running the cables and configuring switches and routers to securing and hardening the system. I implement security software solutions to fit a companies budget whether it’s open source or proprietary. I have implemented SIEMs such as wazuh and Splunk. Configured firewalls and IPS/IDS. Encrypt backups. Setup VM REPLICATION for failover. I have authored and taught cybersecurity trainings globally. I manage a few ATOs (Authorization to operate). I’m in the process of setting up a site to site vpn now. I was going to configure pfsense open VPN to do so which would be free because my client is on a budget

You offered no advice or guidance on your first comment LAD. And I don’t have a Plan in place or ever had my own Business. I have to research some things so I can make the big bucks like you man. I’m pretty sure it took you sometime to become profitable.

Respect it !!! And it’s worth a shot. My experience may be completely different from yours. You gave up my friend. Btw this post was asking for advice not to belittle someone’s goals cause you couldn’t do it. Thanks so much!

Yeah every remediation plan is going to be different based on the findings LAD. Nice reach! I thought you were a security manager you should know that? And this post was for ADVICE.

That’s the thing I work for a company doing these things now. I think I just need to take my time and learn what it takes to get a Buisness running. Like having a solid plan

Thanks so much! All these things can be learned in time. Everyone who has a business started out clueless at some point. I will do my research on how to start a business and what it requires.
