🔒Josh's Hands-On Cybersecurity Course + Internship🔒 joshmadakor.tech/cyber

Thanks Josh, great info.

I honestly feel they should have added the CISSP and maybe another really advanced cert like the AWS Security Specialty and the Microsoft Cybersecurity certs to the degree but I guess it would have upped its difficulty too much

Hi I Have Masters Degree And Google Cybersecurity Certificate I am still on job searching Any Help Is Welcome. Thanks!

Hey Josh, thanks for all the videos! Very informative

Josh, Your cert questions came right on time. I start WGU next week, working towards a Bachelors in Network Engineering and Security. Thank you so much! (Was using ExamCompass which is definitely not the best)

Paasing the CISSP exam without the required experience can be ethically added to a resume as "CISSP Associate." 😊 Some of the DOD directives refer to this specifically.

Got my masters in cyber in the old program, I was pissed as soon as they updated the curriculum/certs 😭

Thanks so much 😊

Cool!

I am about to start the masters this fall. I hope you are well. When are you coming back to Japan?

Get certificates and transfer them to Cybersecurity master degree and take additional classes to complete the degree??

Im a mid level Network engineer. I started the MSCIA this month. I enjoyed the material for the first class. Looking forward to taking my first cert.

Josh are you still gonna drop that course you mentioned in the community post you deleted? Please do, your knowledge in this field is too good man

Where is the link to the practice test? Not in the description....thanks for the information!!! Keep it up

Disregard I see the comment

Finishing mines in Dec 😂. I like to have it to show that I mean business about my career path

Can you put the link to that example resume in the description as noted in the video? As of this comment it is not there.

Im still trying to find a job after graduating WGU Cybersecurity bachelors. I have 2 detailed projects in a git hub too

Do the CASP+. Thanks

Hey Josh, could you make an in-depth video on how to securely pass the MS program in 6 months, what would I need to do to ensure that. I heard some people even completed the Master in 3 weeks. That would be nice

What’s up Josh? I’m an IT manager who worked in a 55k square feet facility. I have my security+ and currently studying for my azure500. Would you reccomend me to go for a masters of cybersec or comp sci degree? I have a non stem major

can you please do a practice exams for server+ and linux+

Would it be better to get the network engineering and security with some cybersecurity certifications

I'm a little over half way through the MSCIA from WGU and it is a very good value. Also, keep in mind the cash value of the certification vouchers you receive when looking at the cost. You get ISC2 CC, CySA+, PenTest+, CASP+, and CISM vouchers as part of the program.

That’s awesome! I’m starting the MSCIA at WGU as well, in August, possibly September. I’ve heard good things about the program

A bunch of the certifications in the MS program are also in the BS program so it would be cheaper the get the MS in Cyber after the BS in Cyber

Would you recommend getting an IT and/or cyber degree either undergrad or grad, if you already have a non STEM degree?

Yeah I am curious about this too. Lots of jobs in my area require a Bachelors in IT for entry level work.

No. The market is terrible right now for I.T. I have a non-stem bachelor's degree and also a bachelor's degree from WGU in Network Operations and Security. I graduated last summer and I still can't find a full-time job. The market is over-saturated with new grads and also people with a ton more experience who have been laid off. Do anything else other than I.T. right now. Huge waste of time and money.

@@BobbyMcGee_2023 Digital Marketing has the same issues I think every industry is kind of a joke right now. I'm betting the U-6 unemployment rate is hovering around 10% because the Fed "needed" to cool off the economy and Congress sure as hell wasn't going to raise corporate taxes or re-ban stock buybacks.

Hello Josh, Please my question is what prep work is there for Masters level at WGA Cybersecurity Program. background is BS is Psychology.Then worked as front Software engineer for 2.5 years, then Technical Product manager for 1.5 years. 3 months of that was for a cybersecurity company.

Right now I am doing a Master's degree in Cybersecurity. But at the same time I'm working on certs, I have my bachelors in IT and I got my CompTIA A+ so far. Working on my Net+, and then after my Sec+. Maybe ill try and start on CISSP after the Sec+. Not 100% sure what I should do after my Sec+. Going to try and get Sec+ before I graduate next year.

I'm curious have you been able to land a job with just the degree and A+? I have the latter, but I'm working on the A+ because I have been unlucky with just the degree.

@@euric869 I actually wasn't able to land a job, but I'm actually an international student living in America. So it makes it significantly more tough, I may have gotten a job if I was a U.S. citizen. But for now I'm also contemplating on getting Josh's course to see if that will help me learn more before I graduate.

I work as a probation officer and have no IT experience. I want to make a career change. I’m interested in the WGU Cyber Masters program but can I take this with no IT experience? I have a bachelors in criminology. I’m thinking of starting with your IT intro course, then cyber course, then the masters program. I can give myself 2 years also. Please let me know the best route. Thanks!

If you have no IT experience with computers.. you need to start from the ground up. Learn the basics of computer components, then software, then learn coding languages, etc.

What do you think of CIAT Bachelor's in it program

I would like to have one on one conversation with you ? I live around Seattle area

Josh, are IT jobs safe from AI? Specifically tech support and cyber security?

@johndoe1274

AI is going to enhance cybersecurity, but it won't replace it anytime soon. That's like if we trusted androids instead of police officers, even if the androids are better there is something off about putting trust of our critical infrastructure into robots.

This requires a huge answer, but luckily I made a video about this recently, haha. Check it out if you get time: kzread.info/dash/bejne/m3qg2duzmNOnYZM.html

Certs such as CISSP is as good as a Masters unless you plan to teach in the university. Cheers!

How can you get cissp if you don't have the required experience? 5 years lol

I did the B.S. in Comp Sci at WGU and now it's worthless

Is this masters degree from WGU? Is this a paid sponsor?

Always appreciate your insights, @joshmadakor

I'll give a constructive response to this, just so you know. I really don't like making repeat videos about ANY topic, even once is enough to bother me. I simply don't like it-however, people will ask the same thing over and over and over and over again, and eventually, I will just make a video about it. The KZread META is, you're "supposed" to remake your popular videos with a new twist every quarter or so. Even though I don't really care to adhere to this, I end up doing it anyway because of the amount of people asking about the same thing repeatedly. There is no way for you to know this without doing KZread, but a significant chunk of viewers for every video are new. it's something like 30-60% of people watching each video are seeing you for first time, so it's basically impossible to satisfy everyone. Hope this helps ^^

I take it you are on the WGU payroll.

@@JoshMadakor The professional line is: "Full disclosure, I have no financial interest in WGU, but I do have a degree from there, and I'm biased." I'm glad you're happy with your experience. My only experience with WGU is talking with some faculty and their trying to hire me at $50k (more than 15 years ago). Not impressed with the faculty's expertise at that time and was floored they thought they could seriously offer $50k for a doctorate. CCNA, MCSE, etc.
