Looking for cert guidance!
I’m a late-40’s life-long IT guy, working as a cybersecurity architect / deputy CISO for a state govt agency the last few years. I have my CISSP and bachelor’s in IT mgmt from WGU.
I have access to free microsoft classes & cert tests through my employer. Thinking about going back and getting some certs. Does it make sense to do the security certs in order?
SC-900, SC-100-200-300-400, AZ 500
Or am I overthinking it and I should just jump in and try a test to see how I do?
What are your goals?
Has anyone here ever worked a tutoring job from Varsity Tutors? I keep seeing them on linkedin with tutor jobs focusing on security. I was thinking it might be a good side hustle tutoring for just a couple of hours a week for some extra income.
