Will the application help me work in cybersecurity?

Question

In fact I would like to work in cybersecurity, and I would like to acquire skills from a young age, can the application help me to have some basis in order to work in it?

Answer 1

SoloLearn does not teach cyber security topics. They teach the basics of programming in a variety of languages. Cyber security people typically do need some programming skills. Many will learn Python as Python is excellent for scanning security logs, databases, etc. Some will also learn C or C++ so they can build high performance apps such as network monitoring tools.

Cyber security can cover a wide range of technologies including networks, operating systems, database, and application layers. Once you get the basics of programming down, you'll want to find additional training focused on cyber security.

My background was in operating systems security. Others focus on network security. In my career I was able to catch two hackers. One of which was hacking our payroll database. It was exciting to see the FBI arrest the guy and his associates. As is frequently the case, he was an employee and utilized his inside knowledge to hack the system. I was involved in three major cases and all three involved employees.
