I’ve worked at AT&T as a sales consultant for 6 years and 8 months where we prospect, uncover, and close on leads. I’ve used Salesforce for the past 4 years during my tenure. I’ve done B2B sales where I’ve received awards for it for 2 years consecutively. Loads of troubleshooting, uncovering needs through consultative styled selling, and tech app subscriptions.
I was wondering if I have the necessary skills to transition into a tech sales role. If so, what would be the best role/fit for me?Amazon Salesforce Google @

Cybersecurity and IT audit are related but distinct fields within information technology. While they may overlap in some areas, their primary focuses are different.
Cybersecurity refers to the practice of protecting digital information from unauthorized access, theft, and damage. It involves implementing a range of strategies and technologies to secure data, systems, and networks against cyber attacks. Cybersecurity professionals typically work to prevent attacks, detect and respond to incidents, and develop plans for disaster recovery.
On the other hand, IT audit focuses on assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of an organization's IT systems, policies, and procedures. It involves reviewing and testing the IT controls in place to ensure they are working as intended and are effective in managing risks. IT auditors typically work to identify potential weaknesses in IT systems and make recommendations for improvement.
In summary, cybersecurity focuses on protecting against threats to IT systems, while IT audit focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of existing IT controls.
