So, you have decided to put your CV together as a cybersecurity beginner. Where do you start? Keep it simple. Highlight your cybersecurity knowledge, certifications and career interests.
Showcase your technical skills and practical experience. Include relevant tools, certifications, personal projects, labs, bootcamps and internships. You don't need years of experience to demonstrate your knowledge even though it may be theoretical.
Finally, highlight transferable skills such as communication, problem-solving and analytical thinking. Your CV should show what you know, what you've practised and your potential to grow in cybersecurity etc.
Day 6 of my Cybersecurity journey!
Python: `join()`, `split()`, `replace()` and `strip()`.
AppSec: Explored Gobuster and Katana and learned how to use them.
More practice, more learning,
Open to learning resources and connections. Let's grow together

Day 005 🔥of 180
I practiced snort rules on KALI LINUX. It was fun but the command sud, cd Desktop... I was checking my note for them but after three trials it stocked on my head I didn't even remember it is in my note (felt like a pro 😁🤭)

I started in Cybersecurity 7 Years ago on a whim with zero experience.
Here I am 7 years later sharing my experiences, knowledge, and life as I continue to build a life of my own.
If I can do it, you can do it too.
Follow along for my journey through cybersecurity and building my own products.
Feel free to ask any questions along the way :)
004 of 180🔥days of learning cyber security
Today I really went through my note 😊 because something hot is gonna happen tomorrow day 005 (practical) 😁🤭 I'll be practicing AES-256-GCM encryption and decryption using Python
#offsec#ForYouPage#encryption#CybersecurityNews
Day 003 of 180🔥( Cybersecurity )
I learnt:
• AES-GCM
• AES-CBC
• There differences
• IV
× What stood out was the fact that AESGCM can ensure both confidentiality and integrity of data while AESCBC can not ensure the integrity

Day 002 of 180 days of learnibg Cybersecurity 🔥
I practiced hashing and encryption a lot It was fun especially hybrid encryption it was confusing when i was learning it theoretically while the practical was kind of fun 😁#cybersecurity#offsec#learningcyber
Forgotten web directories are a massive security blindspot 🚨 Here is how security auditors use Gobuster in Kali Linux to map hidden endpoints and secure hidden paths before attackers find them
DAY 001/180 🔐
My first day learning cybersecurity!
Today, I explored the CIA Triad, hashing, password salting, AES, RSA, hybrid encryption and key management.
One major lesson: cybersecurity is not just about blocking attacks; it's about understanding how to protect data.
From POS operator to tech sales, and now stepping into Cloud Security and DevOps Engineering.
I've finally completed my cohort payment! 🥳
Another investment in myself. Another chapter. A new journey to embrace.
I'm genuinely excited about what's ahead. ❤️
