6 Figures 6 Certs Random Thoughts Thread

If you live in a market with a shortage of IT people it will be much easier to find a security job. Places close to huge military bases tend to have lots of openings due to the Feds hiring up all the security people.

Well someone my dad knows told him I should send in my resume, they do security and pen testing. I want to get certs that make me look ideal and would be useful to that sector since I only have hardware experience

You won't really learn how to do anything from Security+ or CEH since both exams are multiple choice.

The first thing you should do before even looking at certs is figure out whether you want to be on the offensive or defensive side of Security. That's going to determine which certifications you take. Just know that there isn't much money nor praise on the defensive side. And since nobody wants to play defense it's much easier to get hired on that side of the house. But just know you gonna take a huge L eventually by getting breached. Depending on how bad it is and your level of culpability nobody might ever hire you again. So pick the offensive side trust me.

I think offensive might be it Does it involve alot of programming? I took java, python and know a little java script but I'm no expert.

Anybody mess with gs aka Goldman Sachs bank? I see their apy is 1.20% and I currently have an account with ally at 1.05%. I have about 10k in there and growing while saving up for a potential down payment. Would it be worth the hassle to open an account and switch everything over? Not the first time I've done it tho.

I hope you've learned, never share code in class . Better hope the professor doesn't have a policy where both people go down if somebody gets copied from.

Not a 6 cert thing but just got a groupon for real estate licensing course. It was $40 and the regular price was $275. Not bad for an initial investment. Besides anything to help me get out of the retail torture. I got one for my good friend as a birthday gift, who works in leasing and is going thru some problems at work with her property being sold recently. So something to help her out if things get bad for her at work. It was a Florida course but there might be ones for other states. I got a few other computer Groupon I want to use too. Anything helps if I can learn something to improve my future.
