Is cybersecurity a good career choice for beginners with no IT background?

From my experience, beginners can enter cybersecurity even without an IT background if they focus on structured learning and practical labs. Programs like H2K Infosys often introduce foundational networking, security basics, and common tools used in security operations. I have seen newcomers build confidence by practicing log analysis, threat monitoring, and incident response scenarios, and some even explore areas such as cyber security sales training to understand how security solutions are positioned in organizations. Certifications like Security+ or CEH and hands-on exposure to platforms such as SIEM, Wireshark, or basic cloud security labs usually help bridge the initial knowledge gap.
