Lets talk about Cyber Security!

Topic: 4 In-demand cybersecurity niches you can pursue and earn big in the Space.

------

For most people who want to get into Cyber security, or already at the start of your cybersecurity career.

It's always normal to want to attack the bigger niche "Cyber Security" as what you want to do,

without knowing how much more beneficial going for some special crumbs will be to you.

Let me explain the DEXA way!

The truth is, if you want to maximize your earning potential and take on greater job roles or responsibilities, you’ll need to specialize, or do what people call "niche down".


With more data moving into the cloud storage and millions of devices connecting to the Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity teams will grow and roles will become focused.

Having said that, I'm going to tell you about the most in-demand Cyber Security niches and skills, so you can plan your career path better.


1. Penetration Tester aka Ethical Hacker

● Average salary (USD): $120,000 – 130,000

Penetration testers serve as one of the last lines of defense for companies.

Unlike an application security engineer who looks for vulnerabilities during the product’s development, penetration testers are constantly testing live systems.

They use pre-made tools and their own creations to try and hack existing systems, document the vulnerability, and then provide detailed reports to business leaders.

Penetration testers can also work in conjunction with security risk managers to determine how compliant the company is with the company’s existing standards and protocols.

How do you become a marketable Penetration Tester?

● Gain experience conducting wireless network tests, network service tests, social engineering tests, etc.

● Familiarize yourself with popular automatic scanning tools such as Kali Linux, Core Impact, Metasploit, Wireshark, etc.

● Obtain a comprehensive understanding of computer protocols and how different systems and devices communicate with each other across networks.



2. Security Risk Manager (within Governance, Risk & Compliance)

● Average salary (USD): $130,000 - $150,000

Cyber and info security must support business goals, not hinder them. This means that companies need ways to protect data without impacting elements like product design, customer service, and productivity.

In the past, risk specialists focused on finance and insurance. Today, ambitious cyber security professionals are supplementing their background in computer networks, programming, and systems administration with courses in risk management and mitigation, so they can proactively identify risks to a company’s assets.

- How do you become a marketable Security Risk Manager?

● Earn certifications in risk management and info security.

● Gain experience developing and communicating info security frameworks and best practices within your existing role.

● Seize opportunities to head teams or projects to demonstrate leadership ability, since encouraging and implementing info security best practices is a key job function for a security risk manager

Search and apply for your next cyber role


3. Cloud Security Engineer

● Average salary (USD): $150,000 - $160,000


Many companies (almost 70%) are shifting important business applications to the cloud for cost savings. However, this move comes with security challenges.

This increased risk has led to a high demand for cloud security engineers, especially those skilled in AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.

These engineers play a crucial role in safely moving applications to the cloud, a complex task due to the large number of applications and their integration with other systems.

How do you become a marketable Cloud Security Engineer?

● Develop experience working with several programming languages including Java, C++, Python, and AngularJS

● Obtain experience working with a particular cloud service such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform

● Gain automation experience & familiarity with the DevOps methodology
4. Application Security Engineer

● Average salary (USD): $135,000 - $150,000

Every time a company develops a new application, they also throw down a new gauntlet for hackers. Each application is an opportunity for hackers to find vulnerabilities developers overlooked.

As a result, application security engineers are in high demand, especially with the explosion in cloud-based apps. On any given day, an application security engineer is creating new applications, conducting penetration testing, reviewing lines of code, and modelling threats.

How do you become a marketable Application Security Engineer?

a. Get familiar with different programming languages, particularly low-level languages like C and C++

b. Find opportunities to work on application security testing projects in your current role .

c. Participate in “bug bounty” programs at companies like Google, Intel, Microsoft, and others.

Also bear in mind that just because cybersecurity talent is in demand, doesn’t mean employers are rushing to fill roles. This industry still experiences the catch-22 common to all job markets: to get a specific job you need experience, but to get specific experience you need the right job.

Hope you got value.

Good News!

Before I share it, I would love to announce that we just completed the first official meeting with our TeamLead Interns, for the ongoing Cohort 11 of our Project Management Bootcamp.

It held last night, lasted for 1 hour and was deeply informative. I enjoyed my time brainstorming and sharing and receiving solutions and recommendations.

To be clear, there are 10 of them leading about 1,980 participants of this cohort. Further headed by a PM in charge in 2 program coordinators. All doing amazing jobs.

So the good news .

One of our TeamLead interns, (for team 3), who is a banker by profession and also a participant in the bootcamp which is just almost 2 weeks in, Just got a Project Management job on upwork, just from the knowledge she gathered within this short time frame.

She shared it with us and I'm super excited for her.

Just incase you are thinking about giving up now, perish that idea. 😉

Study to the last dot and secure your Certificate.

Congratulations to Eva!
