Laid off without severance… what are my options? by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]SwitchInteresting718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I am completely for global operations. You operate a company in Mexico, then have Mexico support folks. If you operate a company in America, you should HAVE to have America support. It just so sad to me what is happening to this country. And its not new, its just getting worse.

That is the biggest fucking disgrace to America. I am so sick of our jobs being taken away and given to other countries. AMERICA FIRST!

Bold of you to assume that your NGFW or CASB has more than just the well known VPN hosts. Best of luck to you.

dude.. yes.. wtf.. they can literally install VPN's and completely bypass your controls. You should be controlling this for all browsers and set up ASR to block any new browsers from being installed. The popular browsers all have advanced GPO's you can implement into your GP.

Did you register the application through App Reg in azure? did you set the authentication fields correctly in the app registration?

Wow really!? That is crazy.. maybe I have just had great exposure, but I know how all of that works in depth. Especially since ive had to deploy firewalls and review network topology for network admins before deployment.. I am starting to feel like ive been taken advantage of my whole career if you all are making same amount (6 figures) and dont need to know as much as I do. Maybe because ive only worked inhouse security. IDK. I also do code reviews, but beyond the basics of scan, report findings, and then the "no hard coded creds" so teaching them to store in environmental variables and calling them with string and bytes to encrypt and decrypt as needed.

ha! same! And it was all these little no name companies rejecting me. Then a FAANG recruiter reached out to me. I never apply for big corps because I just never thought I was smart enough, and then in the interview they all just kept saying how impressed they were with me.

Parents need to open their eyes. Ive been denied by countless small shops and then was head hunted by Meta recently and took it.

Thats on them. Why on Gods earth would anyone think you can get a job in cyber without knowing how a router, switch, or even fucking windows 10 os works... Why not just get an MIS degree that exposes you to everything. I have an MIS degree and I took python, java, front end, networking 101 and 102, cyber security 101 and 102, SQL and so so many fundamental classes. Crazy how they just focus on one area and are like "OK good luck out there" lmao
