What mistakes should beginners avoid in cybersecurity careers?

I have seen so many beginners in cybersecurity make the mistake of just focusing on tools and not networking, operating systems and security basics. I’ve seen way too many learners jump straight into advanced topics without building a solid foundation or getting their hands dirty in labs and real world scenarios. Organisations like H2K Infosys tend to focus on practical learning as employers want proven skills. A common mistake is to chase certifications and not develop problem-solving skills. Many also overlook the communication and documentation skills. Selecting quality cyber security training with job placement can help to fill the knowledge gaps but continuous learning and hands-on experience is necessary for long-term success.
