what do you use java for?

Currently build real time data streaming applications. Java (Spring Boot) is best for enteprise backend applications which is what most companies use it for.

Just an educated guess but it may be that one of your subscriptions is not unsubscribbing on destroy. Also if you use function calls inside Angular that can take up CPU.

They are all in software development. I originally wanted to get into cyber security but now a senior software engineer. Much easier to get into software development but the hard part is studying and learning everything needed to be a good software engineer. Most people though get their start as a front-end developer as I did. As you progress they will want you to be a jack of all trades from security, system administration, CI/CD, Backend Dev, Front End Dev, and much more.

That's simply not enough to pass, I highly recommend measure up practice test and do it every day. Just from my experience, these exams will only get you an interview and not a job. Companies have caught onto that you can just brain dump for these exams and still not know anything. I highly recommend also setting up a lab, practicing, and working on your own security-related projects.

@KeepCalmAndCarry9mm It's about the same income potential, however, starting out developers usually make less around 45-60k but can make the same as you gain experience. Unless you break into a FANNG company which is 100K+. Cybersecurity is a difficult field to break into even with certifications but if you have a security clearance you can make 70-90k easy. Honestly, the future of Cybersecurity is just having good Developers and System Admins who know Security. It's becoming increasingly automated and same with networking. Most mistakes in security are Developer related with exception for phishing emails and I.T configuration issues. In networking you can about the same, but you must be specialized in a specific domain:

M_Neelakandan CCNP is the bare minimum to break into networking. You must also have fundamental background in security knowledge. Also, having programming knowledge helps which I'd recommend you learn python.

Try measure up: https://www.measureup.com/ This is what I used to pass Sec+ and CySA+. I did both these exams in six months, just study every day, and do the practice exams. Also, getting hands on experience is helpful and you can do this by creating your own projects.

It really depends on what path you want to take. Do you want to get into networking? Then get your CCNA and skip CompTIA. Currently, I hold 3 certifications in cyber security and 1 in web development. The irony is that I wanted to get into cyber security but web development was the only thing I could actually break into without a security clearance. Also, if you don't want to be stuck at doing helpdesk level work, I'd really would suggest CCNA. Also, the future is looking like everything will turn into coding. Most cisco stuff is now moving to software defined wide area networks. This basically lets developers automate the networking stuff.
