Interesting that risk management and compliance/controls are broken out as separate things
I think it's probably dependant on the industry more than anything else. I work mostly with critical infrastructure, food, and manufacturing and honestly don't have a ton of experience outside of that (tech, financial, etc). They're getting to the point that if they're not doing real risk management they're falling behind their peers.
Tbh refer back to the subject areas of cissp if you’re looking for inspiration. The decision to specialize should come from within, and seeing you already love cyber then just keep learning and see what draws you in the most.
You can start from broader areas (like cloud) and drill down based on what you get interested in. Doesn’t hurt to also consider what makes good money in the mid to long term and aligning your passion with what is profitable
Research what's in demand
I got this off of LinkedIn. I follow a bunch of cybersecurity professionals, professors, and recruiters that post really good info.
IAM, governance, incident response, threat intelligence…and many more. But learning how to code and understand how these tools solve problems is a great way to approach anything tech related imo
I’m in the same position. Been doing PAM/IAM for a few years now but I feel I don’t really know cyber sec I just know how to install and configure a tool. Been trying to expand into other areas but I know for a fact PAM pays extremely well, so trying to find another area while keeping the same kind of pay check. Not much info on how different subcategories compare pay wise across firms
EY1, how much does PAM/IAM pay if you don’t mind my asking? 💰👀
