InfoSec at my firm is using Tenable to detect vulnerabilities on all MacOS and Windows endpoints in our environment. I am trying to find a good vulnerability remediation tool that can patch vulnerabilities that is compatible with Tenable. Any suggestions? I had a chat with Automox as a possible solution and it appears that the platform is compatible with Tenable.

Anyone here who’s offering a dual masters degree in PM and Cybersecurity? How’s your experience and will you recommend someone to go in for the dual degree or he/she should take the courses one at a time? #cybersecurity #projectmanagement

Do you ever encounter a common complaint, request, problem, misunderstanding, etc that’s kind of become a joke between you and your colleagues?

For example, I saw a meme of Toy Story’s Buzz and Woody. Buzz was labelled “researcher”and was waving his arm up saying, “imagine all the vulnerabilities” and Woody was labelled “practitioner” and had this unamused look on his face.

What’s become a joke for you and your colleagues? Why is it funny / amusing for y’all?

Made it to the final round for a graduate-level role in 'cyber/risk assurance'. They didn't give me any more specifics on what I'd be doing within cyber, but I know this company does threat intel, pen testing, and vulnerability assessments.

My interview is on Friday and they've asked me to set up Kali on my laptop in preparation for a group activity. There will also be an individual panel interview afterwards. If you were me, how would you prepare? I've been brushing up on networking knowledge and web vulns but didn't expect this.

Currently, I am working on my Bachelors in Cybersecurity with a minor in Computer Information Systems. My professor posted a class path that basically fulfills both cybersecurity and management information systems majors. I’m just curious what the consensus would be about each path? Would having a major in MIS over a minor in CIS be more beneficial? Thanks for your input’s!

This is not asking for help, or starting in cybersecurity. Mods please don't delete.

I am learning cybersecurity. This is my new hobby This is the first time I plan on doing a hobby without a plan to do more. My brain tends me to want an end goal. With this I don't.

Is there anyone else on here that does this for fun? I have a full time career in a different field. Also, never plan on working in cyber.

I have always found it interesting and was decent at in 25 years ago, but stopped following to get a career and family. I am a millennial wanting to get back into it.

If anyone is interested: I am doing a udavoty into program, and tryhackme. After a few years I hope to have a decent understanding. I never plan to work in cyber but would love to understand incidents and how they happened.

Hi everyone,

I’m starting an internship next month focused on Threat Detection and Response Deployment and I’d love some advice! A little about me: I’m a university student who just completed an Associate's Degree in Cybersecurity. I’ve been preparing for this opportunity, but I want to make sure I’m fully ready.

What would you recommend I

Learn or review beforehand?

Focus on during the internship to make the most out of it?

Avoid doing (common beginner mistakes)?

Any tips or resources related to threat detection and response (or internships in general) would be super helpful. I’m excited but also a bit nervous, so all advice is welcome!

Looking for feedback from experienced users on which of these solutions offers stronger security. Of course it always depends on regular code and app audits, patching, etc. but curious if anyone can offer thoughts. Thanks in advance!

This is the weekly thread for career and education questions and advice. There are no stupid questions; so, what do you want to know about certs/degrees, job requirements, and any other general cybersecurity career questions? Ask away!

Interested in what other people are asking, or think your question has been asked before? Have a look through prior weeks of content - though we're working on making this more easily searchable for the future.

I read someone online try to argue this point. Do security researchers create and deploy viruses to check their systems for vulnerabilities?

Or is it a pretty small piece of the puzzle in the grand scheme of things.

So the NSA put out a guide in 2020, and it's fantastic. But it will be 5 years old soon.

Anything as comprehensive and user friendly. User friendly is key here.
