Love the reference. Though, colleges aren't good at navigating towards which job position are set for those who major in cybersec/infosec. I spent a year after graduating looking for a infosec position with little experience I had, landed me a devops engineer position. I searched private and gov't position anywhere from security analyst to cybersec engineer, only to be turned down. Does certs and a degree increase the chance of opportunity or that doesn't matter? Still after 1.5 yrs experience, I haven't heard back from any cybersec position.
Ok rant is over. Thank you again for fine grain position on cybersec/infosec
