Course Overview

Over an eight-year period, from 2014 to 2022, the number of unfilled cyber security jobs is expected to grow by 350 percent, from one million positions in 2013 to 3.5 million in 2022. And of the candidates who are applying for these positions, fewer than one in four are even qualified, according to the MIT Technology Review.

Despite industry-wide efforts to reduce the skills gap, the open cyber security headcount in 2021 will be enough to fill 50 NFL stadiums. A Forbes Technology Council post states that the number would be in the top 100 for the size of work populations of countries worldwide — not just industries.

Every IT position is also a cyber security position now. Every IT worker, every technology worker, needs to be involved with protecting and defending apps, data, devices, infrastructure, and people. It's a full-on war for cyber-privacy talent.

This course is UNIQUE because you will not find a pure theory about what to do and how to learn. It starts with my life story – how I actually did it, what motivated me, and where I did wrong. I am debating about a lot of myths related to your career development, how to succeed in a corporate environment, how to get a bigger salary or promotion, I am explaining how HR thinks and where you need to focus on, I am explaining step by step how to write your resume including custom modern design for several cyber and privacy roles and I am helping you shape your VALUE proposition. Also, I am giving you complete learning paths for the hottest technologies these days including Cloud Cyber Security (Azure, AWS, GCP), SOAR, EDR, SIEM, DLP, HSMs, DAM, etc. Everything included in this course is either used, developed, or tested by me.
