To start a career in cyber security, it's crucial to have a strong foundation in networking, operating systems, and information security principles. Skills like threat detection, vulnerability assessment, and familiarity with tools like Wireshark or Nmap are also important. Learning scripting (Python/Bash), firewalls, and SIEM tools adds great value. Enrolling in Cyber security training courses can help beginners gain hands-on experience and industry-recognized certifications, making them job-ready. As cyber threats evolve, continuous learning and certifications like CompTIA Security+ or CEH can significantly boost your career path in cyber security.
