Disappointed to see no mention of AWS, Azure, or GCP.

As in... it also kills humans???

1. Cut paper in half. 2. Crumple up one half. 3. Put untouched half next to crumpled 4. Exhibit A: Before and After.

Because the janitor keeps plugging the server out to plug in his vacuum.

NYC Tech Professonals interested in joining the Corps, feel free to shoot me a message.

We had a guest on the podcast recently recommend the free tool, Security Onion, which you might find useful for this purpose.

Love the megaman-themed server naming convention!

Reminds me of a book that you might find interesting: "The First 20 Hours"

We've collected some a large list of cybersecurity training and education resources, available here: www.accesscyber.org. Good luck!

I'd say not only doable, but would likely also encourage better habits initially. This question reminds me of a school I read about that taught programming using only pencil and paper.

I'm generally a fan of Zeltser's materials for many things, but I have to echo the comments from other users here: This seems lacking. In addition to the TechSolidarity resource, the Cybersecurity Campaign PlayBook from Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center is pretty good:

Here are some best practices from a security perspective:

I'd recommend something like this:

I find that there is a certain casual helplessness in the tone of most people - not just youngsters - when they talk about how much governments and corporations actually know about them. I would say there are primarily two camps/ schools of thought on the topic: the first believing that privacy does not matter, and the second - while assigning privacy a certain value - thinking it a lost cause.

Having spent the last few years in a hybrid role ranging from security practitioner, to curriculum designer, and educator, I'd say that cybersecurity has the luxury of being both a challenging and enjoyable career field.

As far as 'good career choice', I can't accurately respond to that without knowing what a good career looks like for you. That being said, if we use # of openings + starting salary as metrics... it does look like a promising career. CSOOnline predict 3.5 million unfilled jobs in cyber by 2021 (https://www.csoonline.com/article/3200024/security/cybersecu...).

I'd recommend taking a look at https://www.cyberdegrees.org to figure out what roles interest you and the experience / certifications that will help you get there. Additionally, if you are looking for materials to read/learn/practice hands-on activities in security, I'll share the (constantly growing) list I've curated: https://www.exeltek.net/accesscyber.

Feel free to reach out with any specific questions you might have, and best of luck!

Definitely agree with the other comments: it sounds like you're looking to contribute to open source projects. https://opensource.guide/how-to-contribute/ provides 'testimonials' from professionals who have contributed to open source projects - If you feel comfortable doing so, I'd encourage you to reach out to them for project recommendations, and pick something that matches your skill set + interests. Good luck!
