Starting my Cybersecurity journey after completing Cisco Networking

Hey Dev Community!

I'm a student and today I took my first real step into tech.

I just completed the Cisco Networking course and honestly, I learned all the core concepts really well. Things like IP addressing, routing, switching, and how data actually moves across a network finally started making sense to me.

This is the beginning of my Cybersecurity journey.

Networking was step 1 for me because I feel like you can't secure what you don't understand.

To all the cybersecurity experts here:

If you have any advice for a beginner starting out after networking, I would LOVE to hear it in the comments.
What mistakes should I avoid? Any resources you recommend?

I'll be documenting my whole journey here on dev

Let's learn together! 🙌

Thanks for reading!
