Hello everyone,

I've been working as a Cybersecurity consultant for the past two years, mostly on IAM topics.
I wanted something more technical and I was hesitating between going into pentest and diving more into cloud security on the defensive side. After trying some pentest on Portswigger, I realized it was not my cup of tea. I now look into cloud security and I don't know the skills I need to build and whether this will fit my needs.What are my options here? Should i look into other options?

Will switching from kpmg into industry before I apply for MBA hurt me? I'll m considering a role in IT risk but I don't want my resume to look weak when I apply to b-scbool

I’m a woman in my mid 20s and constantly face situations where people outside of cyber (still within the company) that I’m dealing with (older men in particular) who always push back against my cyber/technical recommendations even with managers cc’d.

In all honesty, I’ve written recommendations that male counterparts voiced in the past that had ZERO pushbacks.
