I am working in Deloitte right now in Hyderabad but as a contractor. The job I have is a help desk analyst aka service desk analyst. But, I am and always have been interested in Cybersecurity.

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

As a technical support analyst with 4.5 years of experience and a non-technical background, I'm planning to upskill myself to transition to cybersecurity roles within the next year. What are the career options and certifications that I can aim for to have an edge in my job switch?

Career switch to cybersecurity

Analyst 

Hi Everyone,

I have 11 years of experience in infrastructure process automation, leveraging tools like Ansible for streamlined efficiency.  This experience has been further enriched by few years of involvement in PCI DSS compliance.  In this role, I ensured infrastructure adhered to security standards, and actively participated in external audits to achieve and maintain certification.

I feel like compliance is more to my liking and looking for opportunities to explore transitioning to information security domain as an internal auditor or implementor

Would really appreciate any opportunity to connect with people who have successfully transitioned to infosec domain and get some guidance around it .

I haven't change job in 17 years. I started here as a fresher and I am here still. Salary is bad but I can't blame the organization. Don't want to dwell on past (because I do it daily). 

I am Wintel Server Engineer for 11 years and did that is there to do. Then I was asked to do Infrastructure Management of our Network Security Devices and EDR Solutions. So my job helps the cybersecurity teams of my organization but I don't feel I am really doing cybersecurity. With this profile I do not get interviews calls.

I have taken subscription of Acloudguru, tryhackme and plurasight to upskill myself . Have enrolled myself to SIEM training (arcsight and splunk) basically this training for freshers who want to get into SOC Analyst role.

Now, I don't know what should I do ..I want to be in Defensive Security Operations type role but I need money soonest as well.

I am thinking doing Security +, CEH and CySA certs ...studying is difficult...focusing is difficult.  

What should I do....please help.

Need Career Advice.
