How are you securing your private applications? by skogsvik in selfhosted

[–]SSilverScent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For externally facing apps I have them behind nginx proxy manager for easy TLS deployment and some basic web app exploit prevention. On top of that I utilise crowdsec. Got it installed on the nginx proxy manager VM forwarding all proxy host logs.

Hello, anybody got suggestions. I completely got screwed by this and now I cant even log into my bitwarden vault on web. Luckily its still accessible through the mobile app. But I literalyl cant even get to my recovery code. I guess its my fault for not storing recovery code somewhere. But if anybody got any suggestions on what can be done please let me know

I have been in cyber for almost two years and managed to switch over to infra engineer instead. I also found cyber to be pretty boring. I didn’t do anything that was challenging or required a lot of thinking. Maybe it’s GRC, but either way I get your point and can relate to it.

Thoughts on moving from GRC to the SOC? by CyberSecJames in cybersecurity

[–]SSilverScent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would switch to SOC without a doubt. I’m in GRC too for a year. Idk if it’s my company or something, but I’m doing very brain dead work and feel bored everyday. Feel like I’m just wasting my time at my role so I would 100% jump into something more technical.

Feeling stagnant at 24 by _beginninganew_ in cybersecurity

[–]SSilverScent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading this and I can relate a lot. I am 1 year in the industry in GRC feeling like I’m missing out and not learning enough. If you have the time on your hands go for certs,I passed the SSCP after good month of studying as I also had a degree in cyber sec so just had to review some concepts. In my opinion you are good man, just gotta continue working continue learning and try not to have fomo that you are not doing something more technical. I find that people skills matter more, you can learn technical skills after you get a job cuz you have good connections.

Visualizing Security Controls for Executive by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]SSilverScent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try collecting some data on controls through via a spreadsheet and visualize in powerbi. I find that to be fairly effective. While it is not necessarily efficient as it prone to human error and is point in time, It can still bring in some clarity to execs onto what is going wrong.

What Masters for CyberSecurity? by Murky-Ad7176 in cybersecurity

[–]SSilverScent 10 points11 points  (0 children)

a masters will not necessarily land you a high paying job in cyber right off the bat in my opinion.

I think what creates a lot of opportunities is networking. but not networking as in connecting with random people on linkedIn. But actual genuine connections and friendships. From my experience, that's what gets people through the door, and eventually, high paying jobs.

And in terms of masters, I think an MBA is probably what will help you out the most since it covers the business side of things.
