I’ve been watching your videos for the past six months and I get a lot from it, and now I finally get my first job as a cybersecurity engineer after two years of studying.. keep up the good work.
I'm literally mapping out this road map right now so I can follow it to a T. I hope to come back to this comment section one day to let you guys know how this video changed my life. Thank you UnixGuy
Thank you, this is a great video that come just in time for what I was looking. I have many years of experience as security engineer working in the DC with many security products such as CP, Cisco and lately Palo Alto. I have been working in n the cloud for some PAN VM series firewalls but I don’t have the cloud experience to know the ins / out of both AWS and Azure to figure my way out how all comes into places. I have been struggling which way to advance my cloud security knowledge and I was trying to match with what most jobs are looking in a candidate, and I didn’t know how to go about doing it. It didn’t not make sense to me to start from the beginning, and way my work up but I don’t have the skills they are looking n those jobs such as automation, scripting, etc. It did not make sense to me to throw my years of experience and switch to other roles such as solutions architect (to make it worth while) but I don’t have the depth of knowledge / experience for those type of roles. So your suggested path, I think it will make much more sense and I think I can see my self achieving all those skills and certs within a year time, so thank you. Just a specific question: 1. There are specialized networking certs for the cloud and what’s your opinion about those certs. I think knowing networking is also important to do security and if you have any suggesting (AWS and azure) 2. I see that there is a shift towards devsecops as well in the industry and I am wondering if cloud security engineers are also expected to fill those roles as well.
This is the kind of information people really need to hear. Too many people want to be a "trainer" and make money selling courses to show people how to pass an exam. There is not enough information to help people understand which certs and why they should focus on to map their career out.
You never fail to hit the big points! Certifications are good to get past HR, but practical experience is key to not only getting hired but also becoming an asset. Hiring and Program managers will usually ask practical application questions that can't be answered with A, B, or C. Do those projects for hands-on skill and never stop developing yourself.
Exactly what I have been looking for. Thank you. I am currently studying AWS and I have CompTIA Sec+. Also doing a Security internship where I play with Azure/AD/Secure Score.
This video is launched at the perfect timing for me. As I am going through my Google Cert., I was feeling like too many people are going through the same road to end up as SOC analysts and I needed a differentiator. On the other hand I was also keen on learning cloud technologies. Now I can see learning Cloud together with Cyber Security as a background and hopefully turning into a cloud security engineer is the way to go for me. Thank you
This channel is a MUST for anyone interested in cybersecurity. I say this because this gentleman is brilliant and also up to date with the industry and the latest trends.
I love this ❤ Thank you for all your hard work. Been stuck fixing it equipment for 13 years, im now motivated to do this! Got no experience with Cyber Security, but im eager to learn.
I just found you and I am following this roadmap. Today marks Day 1 on my journey to becoming a cloud security professional, I will come back to thank you when I land my first role. No matter how long it takes!
This is a good roadmap to become a cloud security engineer, just sharing a little bit of my experience as a cloud security engineer. I started as a cloud engineer for around 1 year and a half before transitioning to cloud security engineer AZ-500 is a really good certification to get after AZ-104. I did a lot of mini labs projects of Microsoft Sentinel & Microsoft Defender for the cloud during my free time,and network security is also essential 😊 Good luck for everyone ❤
So glad I found your page, I have no idea why at my age Ive been so attracted to cyber security. But watching your videos excite and motivated me to keep going. Also thank you you are the second professional that I have seen on this TH-cam that has said if you're in a cloud security why do you need Tia I know it's a good start to have however if I'm going in a opposite direction why do I need to have that
Hands down the best IT/cyber security/ Cloud security video on the internet!! Changing my career from 20+ years of logistics, this is a thorough breakdown on how to start. Thank you!!!
Came back to this video after a few months.. And I have to say, amongst the many "roadmap" and "this is your fastpath to.." videos(..) these days, This is honestly the best and most useful and practical video related to with concrete examples and recommendations! Thanks! Salute! ☺️😎🤘🏻👋🏻
I have A+ and SC-900 and am continuing to study. I was worried about the lack of practical experience, however, and was wondering how I was supposed to develop this in order to make myself ready for an entry-level role. I'd never heard of "Guided Projects" until now - thank you so much!

You are currently one of my favorites youtuber on Cyber Security Topics. Whenever you can , please make one video for GRC ( Governance Risk and Conformity ) career path. Thanks

Great content again! I'll be going down this path now I have my foot in the door thanks to your previous videos! You don't know how thankful I am for your content. This is the career path I want to go down for sure!
Hi @@cyptowithkelvit's going incredible! I'm now moving to 1st line full time from September from doing dispatch/1st line. They've also paid for my Comptia A+, AZ900 and the MS900 so I'm in the middle of doing those as well!
@@cyptowithkelv Hi, it's going very well thank you! It's been 8months and I'll be moving in to full time 1st line and work have paid for my Comptia A+, AZ900 and my MS900. Thank you for asking!
I want to thank you for providing such a valuable guide. I am considering transitioning from mobile development to the cloud security domain and was looking for a roadmap to guide me. Thank you again.
Got a job (with Comptia Sec+ Certification) as a Cybersecurity Specialist for a Cloud Infrastructure Service Provider, This video helps my next step to fully solidify the fundamentals and honed the skills and knowledge. Thank you.
Another amazing video. This is exactly what I wanted to know. You are doing the lords work with these videos. The single most useful content created in the cyber category for sure. If there is an industry award you definitely deserve it.
From Today i am following your plan for Cloud Security Engineer , thank you such clear information for CSE in practical approach , love it. However will let you know further, thank you dear for video.
You never miss with your videos. Thank you for continuing to drop knowledge. 2 months in my current IT role. Your videos have helped me a lot. I look forward to applying this knowledge for my next position.
@@MiraculouslyLiving The best advice I can give to you is to apply to 10-20 places per day. That can be Help Desk to any JR level security position. Also, build a home lab. Letsdefend, Ciscoforall, and UNIX Guy have great resources on that. You may get lucky with a company interviewing you and asking you mostly scenario based questions. Best of luck to you!
Great content there. I like the step by step approach you used the video. Hopefully i follow thru and with consistency I’m surely gonna excel. Thank you Sir🙏🏾😊
I'm on my way to follow this road map. Got my Security+ on Dec. of last year. Today I passed Microsoft SC-900, next week I'll start working on the guided projects then ill start preparing for AZ-500. Although i didn't get a job yet but i feel so proud of myself. From being a new immigrant to Canada and working labor intensive jobs to feeling so close to get a proper job. Thank you UNIX Guy your advice and guidance were always there for me when i needed it the most. I wish if there is a way i can contact you to send you my resume and tell me what you think of it! Thank you again for your videos and God bless!
good luck man, you should be very proud of yourself and im sure any company will be very lucky to have you! keep at it and you will reach your goals very soon!
If no one else said it, I'd recommend documenting your projects. It can be a nice reference and also you can put it on a simple website blog to show your work.
@@JohnWickIsAlive For me simple screen shots and write out what you did in your steps. I am doing this for 2 reasons, 1 for hands on experience, and 2, to show something tangible I have done. Hell even for a bonus depending on how you document may go a long way also. Another thing, what I intend on doing is hosting my simple blog on AWS to add another layer of experience under my belt
thank you for this video. I was feeling down for buying coursera for a year cause it seems like the certs aren't helping with landing a entry lvl job. this has been a nice step by step insight on more than just multiple questions.
@UnixGuy I'm just in a tight spot as a single father with a little one to watch after... some times it just feels like I'm running out of time. but I won't quit on her. failure isn't an option. thank you for the advice be safe out there.
SO i completed the google cyber security cert and i've started on the Microsoft. Also in the middle of my Network Security & Engineer BSc right now as well. Thanks for this.
Question. I found your videos and they have given me exactly what I was looking for. A cost effective path that is straight to the point. I’ll be learning exactly what I need and no filler. My question is though that when I’ve asked around the community people have said the Google certifications are not really recognized in the community. I remember you saying you did as well attend a University. I’m sure you’ve been in a hiring position by now….Is this true? Will it make getting a job harder? Are employers going to want more and not take these certs seriously? If anyone has done one of these pathways solely and have experience with getting into the job I would like to hear from you as well!
I post weekly success stories of individuals from all over the world who followed my roadmaps, so it works. I wouldn’t worry about ‘recognised’. The skills you learn are ‘recognised’. Also, the google cert is the beginning of you journey, you will be doing a lot more stuff afterwards
This seem to be bit too oriented towards Microsoft Azure. The company I work for mostly uses AWS and to some extent GCP. It would be great if you could provide pathway for each cloud.
As I explained in the video, all these platform are extremely similar! you can do Aws practitioner, then aws architect then security. Likewise with gcp
Very Good Morning! Thanks! for the complete path to gain knowledge for Cloud Security... Securing Azure SQL Database -- looks like this guided project is no longer is showing in Coursera. Thanks! again, keep Shining 🙂
Another great video thank you so much for this free knowledge. I've done the NYU course you've mentioned and I'm halfway through the google cert but this video opened my eyes to more possibilities and I'm a bit lost now. Is this pathway into cloud better than the traditional one (Google/CompTIA/blue team/ projects/etc) in terms of career and salary progression? Again, thanks A LOT for your videos man, the best in youtube 🙏
hey mate, well done on finishing the NYU courses! this path is no better or worse than the security analyst path; it’s just another possibility for you :) pick one path and follow through with it
In the US, it's still worth getting the Sec+ for any security job mainly because it will get you past tons of gatekeepers and is literally required for almost anything involving government / government contractors.
I have discussed the ‘HR filters/keywords’ in many videos. Do security+ if you feel strongly about it and you want to apply to a specific government job (DoD). Otherwise no, it is not a must in the US.
I was in hospitality for 13 years trying every year to get out and kept getting stuck, nobody would call me back and in most cases I couldn’t even land an interview. Your videos have helped me immensely, and the realistic approach and reminding people to be patient with their learning journey and humanising the fact that everybody starts somewhere and that people learn in different ways and time frames helped me immensely. I know have a government IT traineeship which allows me to see and experience many different areas of the IT industry from service desk to cyber security, cloud and have a solid direction to aim in, and to be honest I owe that to you and helping me overcome my own frustrations with learning and feeling overwhelmed and when I didn’t know anything. Thank you.
@@UnixGuy Your sincere and caring approach shines through every video; there’s a clear difference between you and the rest who make similar videos. Your ability to create a roadmap for beginners, and show them clarity on how to achieve their career goals and skills acquisition from a recruiter perspective is second to none. This is why I said what I said 🙏🏾.
Hey, great video - got me pumped up! Quick thing though, I remember you being all in on AWS before, but now it's all about Azure? i am a little confused from where I'll start my road map? I'm transitioning from business to cloud security, so a bit of clarity would be awesome. Thanks a bunch!
As explained in the video, both azure and aws are very similar, learn one and you’ll be good at the other. It just happened that there is more quality training coming from azure that makes it easier for beginners to start
Thank you so much for your videos. Specially this one. I have been working for 10 years as a security engineer. I watched this video three months ago and now I am following your recommendations. I am preparing myself for the SC 900 exam. I know someone asked you if there is an updated link to the SQL course. Could you please tell us if you know it? Again, thank you for all your videos !
So I’m doing my security + and about 90% finished and do not know what approach to go next. Originally I was thinking SOC analyst but now looking for cloud security but just a little lost as to which I would prefer or where to go next , any insight?
@@UnixGuy I guess I’m just freaking out because I am currently unemployed trying to get a job in tech and feel like I don’t know enough. I have my. SOC analyst certification already but thank you I appreciate the guidance.
Thank you so much for this! Would you recommend jumping straight to the Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500) Professional Certificate training if my only experience is the ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity and no previous knowledge of Azure?
Thank you for providing this insightful video. I aspire to pursue a career as a Cloud Security Engineer, despite not having a formal degree or background in IT. While I appreciate the roadmap you've laid out, I'm concerned about the relevance of CompTIA Security+ certification for HR screening. Could you please give your view on whether HR departments typically require this certification when considering candidates for roles like mine? Thank you for sharing your expertise and guidance.
Your videos are so good. I am so fortunate to have come across this series. How long would you estimate to complete everything in this video? 6 months? 1 year? Longer?
what I am about to say is not meant to sound like to know everything. In all truth I am still struggling to get a job in CS. I have a Masters in Cyber Security from University San Diego, Network+, Security+, and CySA+. Do you think 6 months is realistic? @@UnixGuy

Right on time 🙏🏾

Very Good Morning!
Thanks! for the complete path to gain knowledge for Cloud Security...
Securing Azure SQL Database -- looks like this guided project is no longer is showing in Coursera.
Thanks! again, keep Shining 🙂
thanks for letting me know; I’ll look for an alternative!
I've just updated the links in the description box of the video!
@@UnixGuy thank you very much for your support 👍
Inspirational I will follow ❤❤️
good luck
damn great video i wish you could make a video on cloud engineer too
the focus of the channel is cyber security, perhaps you can do cloud sec instead? 😎
Amazing information as always.
Glad it was helpful!
I’m enrolling for the Microsoft cyber security analyst next month, September.

Another great video thank you so much for this free knowledge.
I've done the NYU course you've mentioned and I'm halfway through the google cert but this video opened my eyes to more possibilities and I'm a bit lost now. Is this pathway into cloud better than the traditional one (Google/CompTIA/blue team/ projects/etc) in terms of career and salary progression?
Again, thanks A LOT for your videos man, the best in youtube 🙏
hey mate, well done on finishing the NYU courses!
this path is no better or worse than the security analyst path; it’s just another possibility for you :) pick one path and follow through with it
One is faster! (Hint hint: you'll be able to advance faster too :D)
😭thank you so much, just what I was looking for
🙏🏻
In the US, it's still worth getting the Sec+ for any security job mainly because it will get you past tons of gatekeepers and is literally required for almost anything involving government / government contractors.
I have discussed the ‘HR filters/keywords’ in many videos. Do security+ if you feel strongly about it and you want to apply to a specific government job (DoD). Otherwise no, it is not a must in the US.
What is DoD?

I'm I will but when get my first gob
thank you so much! i decided to start with aws cloud practitioner first, I’m halfway my course on udemy and it’s so boring i actually cant
good luck!
I was in hospitality for 13 years trying every year to get out and kept getting stuck, nobody would call me back and in most cases I couldn’t even land an interview.
Your videos have helped me immensely, and the realistic approach and reminding people to be patient with their learning journey and humanising the fact that everybody starts somewhere and that people learn in different ways and time frames helped me immensely.
I know have a government IT traineeship which allows me to see and experience many different areas of the IT industry from service desk to cyber security, cloud and have a solid direction to aim in, and to be honest I owe that to you and helping me overcome my own frustrations with learning and feeling overwhelmed and when I didn’t know anything.
Thank you.
huge congrats my friend! you made it happen 👏🏻
thanks you, this information is very useful
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Unixguy, could you create a guide on projects and certifications for cloud security in AWS please. Thanks in advance
the video includes aws projects, check them out please…
My mentor God bless you 🙏🏾

@@UnixGuy Your sincere and caring approach shines through every video; there’s a clear difference between you and the rest who make similar videos. Your ability to create a roadmap for beginners, and show them clarity on how to achieve their career goals and skills acquisition from a recruiter perspective is second to none. This is why I said what I said 🙏🏾.
Hey, great video - got me pumped up! Quick thing though, I remember you being all in on AWS before, but now it's all about Azure? i am a little confused from where I'll start my road map? I'm transitioning from business to cloud security, so a bit of clarity would be awesome. Thanks a bunch!
As explained in the video, both azure
and aws are very similar, learn one and you’ll be good at the other. It just happened that there is more quality training coming from azure that makes it easier for beginners to start
@UnixGuy Fair enough, you were number one following this month on TH-cam, but now you are EVEN more
Thank you so much sir . I appreciate your guidance.
Always welcome!
Great video. What about if you want to go the AWS route?
once u do those u can learn aws quickly, same concepts just different names
This is what I have been looking for.
glad you found it!
great content there😮
thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to put together this information. At what point in the process should one start applying for jobs?
you do that after you finish one or two certs! watch this I explain it here:
th-cam.com/video/2RfwwlbQecs/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for your videos. Specially this one. I have been working for 10 years as a security engineer. I watched this video three months ago and now I am following your recommendations. I am preparing myself for the SC 900 exam. I know someone asked you if there is an updated link to the SQL course. Could you please tell us if you know it? Again, thank you for all your videos !
great work! unfortunately that course is no longer available so just go ahead and skip it :) continue with the rest of the plan
@@UnixGuy thank you so much for taking the time to answer my comment. I really appreciate it. I will follow your advice ! ✋🏼👊🏼
This man knows his shit♥️
🙏🏻
You’re the BEST ❤… simple

So I’m doing my security + and about 90% finished and do not know what approach to go next. Originally I was thinking SOC analyst but now looking for cloud security but just a little lost as to which I would prefer or where to go next , any insight?
they’re both great paths, with similar transferrable skills. Pick one and study hard, thats what matters
@@UnixGuy I guess I’m just freaking out because I am currently unemployed trying to get a job in tech and feel like I don’t know enough. I have my. SOC analyst certification already but thank you I appreciate the guidance.
I understand! Try and get any job to pay the bills till you reach your goals@@Columbusberryofficial
Thank you so much for this! Would you recommend jumping straight to the Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate (AZ-500) Professional Certificate training if my only experience is the ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity and no previous knowledge of Azure?
I would at least do the practical projects first :)
@unixguy if you already have Security plus would you still recommend start with the coursera Microsoft cybersecurity certificate?
It’s honeslty optional at this point :)
Thank you for providing this insightful video. I aspire to pursue a career as a Cloud Security Engineer, despite not having a formal degree or background in IT. While I appreciate the roadmap you've laid out, I'm concerned about the relevance of CompTIA Security+ certification for HR screening. Could you please give your view on whether HR departments typically require this certification when considering candidates for roles like mine? Thank you for sharing your expertise and guidance.
I’ve discussed that in so many videos already…
Your videos are so good. I am so fortunate to have come across this series. How long would you estimate to complete everything in this video? 6 months? 1 year? Longer?
glad you’re here my friend! it really depends on how fast you learn, everyone’s different. 6 months is a good target
what I am about to say is not meant to sound like to know everything. In all truth I am still struggling to get a job in CS. I have a Masters in Cyber Security from University San Diego, Network+, Security+, and CySA+. Do you think 6 months is realistic? @@UnixGuy
yes I think, you have a good baseline but you don’t have any practical experience or practical certs / so following the roadmap will help woth that
Do you think there are plenty of remote jobs available with competative pay for this type of work?@@UnixGuy
Great video! Thank you. How long do you think this road map would take?
no idea, everyone learns at a different speed
Really appreciate you sir
🙏🏻
Thank you !!
🙏🏻
chose the right person
🙏🏻
Pls, I need to join,I'm currently on my cyber security journey and I hope to come back here to appreciate your effort.
Thanks so much
not sure I underatand your question, but follow the roadmap in the videos and you will reach your goals :)
Best mentor ❤
Agree

Thanks for all you do. Please can you help with a video on becoming a SOC Analyst? Thanks
yep the roadmap you’re looking for is in this video:
th-cam.com/video/DRJic8vCodE/w-d-xo.html
Oh my! Thanks a lot. I already watched and had the steps written down. I never knew the video was for SOC Analyst
