"Cybersecurity is one of the world's fastest growing, most exciting fields--but that doesn't mean it's easy to enter the industry and succeed. Now, there's a complete guide to creating a great cybersecurity career, whether you are migrating to cybersecurity from another field or are already a cybersecurity professional. Building a Career in Cybersecurity doesn't teach detailed technical skills you can get from a thousand books and videos. Instead, Yuri Diogenes focuses on make-or-break knowledge you won't find elsewhere: personal strategy, planning, process, mindset, and the critical "soft skills" today's employers are desperate to find. Diogenes is your perfect guide: he's been there and done it all. He is Principal PM Manager for a cybersecurity team at Microsoft, hiring the next generation of practitioners. He's also a professor for a bachelor's degree program in cybersecurity, where he prepares students to become cybersecurity professionals. Diogenes will show you exactly what leaders like him are looking for, and mentor you step-by-step through getting started and moving forward."--Back cover.
