#Veterans & #cybersecurity in Data Centers: Defending the Digital Fortress 🔒🌐 As the world increasingly leans on digital solutions, securing data centers—our digital economy's backbone—becomes paramount. Who better to lead this defense than our nation's #veterans? Roles & Impact: 🔹 Security Analyst: Monitor, detect, and respond to threats. Veterans, with their keen eye for anomalies and quick decision-making, can be frontline defenders. 🔹 Penetration Tester: Simulate cyberattacks to find vulnerabilities. The strategic thinking and scenario planning inherent in many veterans make them adept at this role. 🔹 Incident Responder: When breaches occur, swift action is essential. Veterans, trained in crisis situations, can manage and mitigate the impact efficiently. 🔹 Security Architect: Design the overarching security structure. The foresight and meticulous planning of veterans are crucial in building resilient cyber defenses. Credentials to Earn: Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP): A gold standard in cybersecurity qualifications. Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH): For those interested in penetration testing. Certified Information Security Manager (CISM): Ideal for management roles in cybersecurity. Getting Started: Leverage Military Experience: Skills like threat analysis, intelligence gathering, and risk management in the military can be directly translated to cybersecurity. Training & Education: Pursue specialized courses or degrees tailored to cybersecurity. Many institutions offer discounts or programs specifically for veterans. Networking: Engage with the #cybersecurityexperts and community on platforms like LinkedIn. Attend conferences and webinars to stay updated. Mentorship: Connect with other veterans who've transitioned into cybersecurity. Their journey can provide invaluable insights and direction. With the skills, discipline, and commitment veterans bring, they're uniquely positioned to bolster the cybersecurity backbone of our data centers. For those veterans eyeing a purposeful transition, the cybersecurity realm of data centers beckons! 🌟 #veteranshelpingveterans #vetshelpingvets #army #armyveteran #navy #navyveteran #marines #airforce #airforceveteran #coastguard #spaceforce #militaryveterans #transitioningmilitary #transitioningservicemembers #transitioningveterans #frago22 #milspouses #datacenters #militarytransition #veteran #veteranjobs

I write often on this page about the shortage of cybersecurity experts compared to businesses' need for them. About 500,000cybersecurity jobs are going unfilled in this crucial industry. As we consider the nation's evolving cybersecurity and national security needs, one group always comes to mind: U.S. service veterans. Why? Because their military training and experience uniquely equip them to transition into the cybersecurity industry. That's one reason the Cyber Hero vCISO Network will work with veterans as we serve the cybersecurity needs of SMEs nationwide. Watch this recent interview I did with Antonio "T" Scurlock, himself a retired Naval (Information Warfare qualified) Officer. Learn about his work to help veterans through the National Initiative for Cybersecurity, Careers and Studies.

Connections are key. Got to talk cybersecurity and trade sea stories with a fellow Navy Veteran. Both Prowler guys turned cyber and information security geeks - he fixed’em, and I flew [in] them. There’s a sayong at USNA (and probably similar at the other Academies) - “Wherever two or three shall meet…” I find that goes beyond the Service Academies and extends to the Veteran Community as a whole. Doesn’t matter what service or job, officer or enlisted, or when you served. Fobbit, POG, or Grunt - it doesn’t matter. Instant bond and sea (or field) stories abound. We talked cybersecurity, primarily “securing the human”, and when the work was done, traded sea stories and compared our Navy experience. And I’ll put this out there - former EW folks - especially those of us that were on the EA side - make good cyber security pros.

The “Breaking into Cyber from a Military Background” course is now live and free on YouTube! 🎉😃🎊(https://lnkd.in/gzJyBxMN) As a Navy #veteran myself, I know the unique difficulties of transitioning out of the military into the civilian sector. This presentation is for all #armedforces personnel who are making their transitions out of military service and want to #breakintocyber. It isn’t an easy road! But it is doable. This #breakingintocyber course will help you to: •Translate military experience to cybersecurity experience •Identify and understand career types in and around cybersecurity •Select cybersecurity roles/niches to pursue •Develop a backwards planning roadmap •Understand cybersecurity certification types •Develop and start experience building opportunities •Create cybersecurity resume for ATS analysis •Understand key of networking •Prepare for cybersecurity interview rounds •Value yourself and respect the long game For those of you that have taken any of Cyber Threat Intelligence Center (CTIC) LLC’s other “Breaking into Cyber” courses, you will see that about 90% of the content is the same as your course. The difference here is that every slide and every conversation is geared toward transitioning servicemembers. The CTIC Cyber Career Roadmap is the same (so everyone in our #cybercommunity can help support each other!) https://lnkd.in/gzJyBxMN If you or some you know is transitioning out of the military (#navy, #army, #marinecorps, #airforce, #coastguard or #nationalguard) and looking to get into cybersecurity, this is a great opportunity to learn! And, let’s connect and message once you’re done! 🎉🎊 Please comment, share and like for greater visibility and reach. I’d like to get this resource out to as many people as possible. 🙏🙏 #cybersecuritytraining #transitioningservicemembers #transitioningmilitary #TAPS #skillsbridge #military #militaryspouses #militaryveterans #militaryfamilies #militarylife #navyveteran #navyreserve #armyveteran #armylife #marines #airforce #veteranowned #veteranshelpingveterans #veteranssupport #veteransaffairs

Is the frontline of national defense now at our desks? In what other job are normal citizens actively fighting a person on the other side that is wearing a military uniform? Today, cybersecurity professionals are on the front lines of a high-stakes digital battlefield, directly engaging with adversaries—including those in military uniforms. This isn't just another job; it's a crucial national defense position, combating organized, state-sponsored military groups. This dynamic field demands continual learning and adaptation due to the rapid evolution of threats. It’s a challenging, ever-changing environment that merges the rigor of intellectual engagement with the adrenaline of securing national interests. #Cybersecurity #NationalSecurity #BlueCollarTech #DigitalDefense #TechCareers #CyberWarfare #FutureOfWork #CyberTraining #InfoSec #EmergingTech

I’m often asked why a career in Cyber Security? How did I get from Royal Marine to protecting Operational Technology? In the military, it was range-work, fieldcraft, rope climbing, yomping, cold weather warfare, mountain training, operations, surviving on rations and living in mess decks on navy ships.  So what… It's the in-between skills you can learn along the way that can really help your future career. For me, it was leading teams, dealing with uncertainty, teamwork, overcoming challenges, planning, CIS networks, crypto, information assurance, auditing, briefings and report writing. Although I could never have imagined a career in Cyber at the start of my military journey. It made sense to join a specialist Cyber company that values the very best technical skills alongside strong values and skills forged in the military. Can you tell, I’m a big believer in veterans. #veterans #cyber #icssecurity #trust
