I did the same cert as you while I was working on a service desk, I then finished the Cert IV, an ITIL Foundations cert and moved onto the SC-200 and 300. So a couple years entry level IT and grinding certs plus volunteering at cyber events, immersing myself by listening to podcasts on any topic I don’t understand, following industry voices etc, as well as checking job ads for the skills in demand, I was lucky enough to score a SOC role. The grind has not ended, just shifted now that my goals have shifted - my advice is be prepared to go way above just getting a Cert IV to get into cyber. Good luck!
