I only have warehouse mgmt work experience(which means all IT responsibilities fall on me), but I can’t keep away from various programming projects.
I’ve only dipped into the privacy-sphere of software in the last 2 years, but I’ve found a earnest passion in my pursuits. My obsessiveness has bled into most friends asking why I haven’t pivoted my career, and I don’t have a good answer other than I assumed there’s no money to be made in it since I never finished my college CS degree.
I will code and continue my projects regardless, but was hoping this community could offer some advice or there experiences with similar endeavors. Thanks
You could go into infosec but honestly the industry in general does security because of regulations. They consider it a massive cost centre.
Pentesting is always an option but it requires considerable skills. Otherwise just look towards government security contracts
gov’t security contracts sounds like decent job security actually. Thanks for this
Management is fucking clueless when it comes to security anyway. Any bozo can get a job as a security analyst add long as they have a few random certifications and like, post cybersecurity news to their LinkedIn regularly with their shit takes
