How to get an entry level cyber security job

Question

Hi Team,

I am a college graduate with enormous interest in the field of cybersecurity. I have a fair enough knowledge of encryption, techniques and stuff like that. I have done a project based on steganography and deciphering image steganography. I want to establish a career in cybersecurity and so I wanted to know how can I get an entry-level cybersecurity job?

Thanks in advance,

Sam.

Cybersecurity analyst (sometimes called information security analyst) is likely to be your first role if you’re looking to enter the field of cybersecurity. A cybersecurity analyst's duties can include:

• Planning, implementing, upgrading, or monitoring "security measures for the protection of computer networks and information."

• Ensuring "appropriate security controls are in place that will safeguard digital files and vital electronic infrastructure."

• Responding to "computer security breaches and viruses."

These duties require knowledge in areas such as computers and networks, telecommunications, management and customer service, and a good grasp of the English language.

 If you decided to go for a cyber security domain, then I suggest you look into the Cyber Security Certification.
