Great Video UnixGuy; I find it very helpful and helped re-arrange my start-off point into Cybersecurity- GRC, to be precise. Thank you.

Great video. Is the world becoming more secure? Doubtful, but there is definately a push for more security regulations - you can count on that and this is where GRC comes into play. Related to this is that a lot of high-end companies (ASX 100 for example), don't yet have CISO's but don't be surprised that if not mandated by regulation, then there will at least be a push by the regulators for these positions to be created in the future in my view.

Thank you so much for this video @unixguy, this is the closest I have come to understanding the big GRC picture. I am a lawyer who has been interested in tech for the longest, especially security and privacy issues, and I want to go into GRC. My first request is that you please present me with a possible roadmap. One of the struggles I have had is finding a pivot point. I know it will be hard, but I think this is a path I would actually find fulfillment in. As a lawyer, I already help businesses drive their internal policies and compliance of some sort.

Thank you for keeping it simple and straight to the point

Very informative, thank you.

thankyou for this video! very informative!

I just came upon this video, can you share a list of all the smaller companies that would likely hire a JR. GRC analyst? Great videos btw. Learning a lot through them. Thank you for all the hard work and commitment.

Thank you for this video, clear and crisps guidance. I have recently moved to Compliance through IJP from development profile. This video helped me clear most of the queries I had. Could you please guide us on the financial growth in compliance. Also how to build confidence talking to senior stakeholders.

Thank you

A related podcast that might be of interest: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-chjZ3Yzyxh4.html What is GRC? 10:00 Why is GRC underrated? 14:35 Key success factors in breaking into GRC 23:10 Value of Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) cert 33:10

I used to work at a large accounting and consulting firm. The information and cyber security unit in consulting took in tons of fresh graduates to do GRC work. In my country, often times all it takes to get into cybersecurity via GRC is, i quote job postings - “interest” or “knowledge”

Great video. What are the similarities and differences between cyber security audit vs GRC job functions? the certifications for both seem to be similar. Appreciate your input on this! thanks!

Interesting facts

Hi UnixGuy, I have a master's in Computer Science and I work as RSA Archer consultant helping businesses with development & implementation of GRC programs using Archer. I am further interested in exploring GRC opportunities, could you point me the right direction to further strengthen my skills and employability? I didn't have much knowledge about GRC until I started this job and always saw it from the technical requirements standpoint,but I am interested towards increasing my knowledge about GRC.I am looking for some help to guide me in the Right direction. I really appreciate your channel.There is much less content available online about GRC careers. Please continue doing it. Thank you.

Hey thank you for this informative video! I was torn between cloud security and grc consulting before and i am so glad to know they overlap!! I'm still in college and currently doing google cert and later on will do the microsoft one and prepare for SC-900. Could you please make a video on security consulting and resume tips? As i plan to study further will an MBA or MIS degree be useful in this career speacialization?

Hi Unix Guy ,just loved your videos .I wanted your advice.As u said we have to interact with stake holders and doing documentation thing ...so your saying communication skills matter a lot in GRC field .As my communication skills is pretty decent ,so i am worried whether should i choose this field or not?Please help me out

This is a great video! Are you saying I should look at being a SOC Analyst first before entering GRC? I'm confused on how to get experience as I am just doing research to make sure I woll even like the position. Once you have the experience, is it easier ti fibd a job in GRC?

Thank you for the information! I am looking to pivot careers entirely into the cyber security field, and GRC sounds fascinating. I currently hold an BS in Business management as well as an MBA. I recently completed Sec+. What would you advise my next step to be?

As a 4 yr SOC analyst, it has been tough for me to get into GRC. It might be my resume, but I cannot even get Hiring managers to call for interviews. I guess I need to work on the CISA cert and then maybe I'll start getting taken seriously for job postings.

Thank you Unix guy for this video, you're the best. I have a BSc. in IT and some 3.5yrs working as an IT Officer and I recently obtained my CC from ISC2. I want to dive into GRC. What would you advise my next step be?

Back in my first days, ISACA allowed you to credit up to 3 years if you had a Bachelor’s Degree. That might be true as of today. I still hold my CISA and will do as long as I can.

Ex EY & PwC Alumni here. This is an excellent video

Hi I am working more into the IT audit front however, want to move more into GRC and TPRM role

Hi brother. Thank you so much for this video. Very informative. I wanted to know what your thoughts were on the ISO 27001 lead implementer cert. Is it worth doing? I’m new to cybersecurity and I recently passed my professional google cybersecurity certification in the hope of getting in the field. I like GRC and auditing and I’m looking for ways to get in involved. Thanks in advance Cam

I work as a Cyber Security Engineer and a Penetration tester simultaneously. I want to pivot both into GRC for a higher paying role. Is there any tips you have for me?

Thank you for this video... I'm a recent graduate from Pharmacy school and I'm looking at transitioning into the Cybersecurity space... Any tips for me to get started...

Hi UnixGuys thanks a ton for this video... I am IT professional with 14yrs of experience in Network & Security but now i want to move into GRC and I have completed my ISO 27001 Lead Implementer Certification & CISM certification. I am also planning for CISSP. Can you please help me on how should i prepare for interview? Any tips you would like to share... Thanks in Advance..

I am an assistant company secretary and look after the audit and rsik committee. Just attended a board risk day on this very topic. Eye opening. I am conscious of how big this field is becoming. What cyber security roles would I be wise to get into (that pay more than assistant cosec) at the governance level that don't require deep technical knowledge?

Hi UnixGuy, I wanted your advice. I'm trying to break into GRC and have no technical experience/a degree. I realise it's going to be difficult, but I've decided to aim for some certifications and possibly go back to school (online) in a few years as I continue building up my expertise. My question is, do you think getting a Sec+, AWS Cloud Prac, and AZ-900 would be enough? I considered adding CCNA and Net+ to the list as well, but I'm not sure how practical it would be to get networking certs when working in GRC. I would have loved to go for the ISACA certs, but that 5 years of experience requirement is unfortunate.

Great video. Please what certs do you recommend for one who wants to get to systems administrators?

Hi. Instructive video here. I'm a lawyer and I have no background in Computer Science and allied courses. How do I get started in the GRC space? Is this a good fit? Would it be extremely technical for me?

I have 8+ years experience in IT from help desk, IT specialist, IT Coordinator, Sr IT Systems Engineer (currently). I just graduated with Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance. Current certs are (ITIL, A+, Network+, Security+, Project+, CySA+, PenTest+, etc. Plus the ISC SSCP (Systems Security Certified Practitioner). I'm wondering if GRC would be the best route for me in Cybersecurity. I just finished school last month and all jobs in cybersecurity that I've applied for I haven't heard back. It's rough to get in even with IT experience.

very informative .... can you please make video on cybersecurity degree from monash university

Great content, I’m a grc technical consultant for a financial institute. For me even after working as a grc tech consultant for 3-4 years now still I’m lost sometimes and I lose my confidence and interest in grc Could you help me what kind trainings might help me boost my confidence for working in Europe

Nice video bro. Is SimpliLearn certifications good for landing a cyber security entry level job? I'm currently learning Introduction to cyber security from them which offers certification.

Hi again UnixGuy, could you please inform what is the name of cloud cert needed ? based on what you mentioned.. Thanks, Josh

Great content again. Thanks. What do you think about OCEG GRCP?

Sir, Can u explain the ultimate road map to be a cyber security engineer or cyber security expert.😊 and how about being an ethical hacker is worth todays

Now that this is a year old… Do you think having the Google cert in cyber security would be a good start toward training for GRC?

Hi thank you for your video. I am a manual tester in IT for the last 6+ years. Would someone with my background be able to move into GRC? Thanks.

For someone without any background in tech but interested in cybersecurity(grc mostly), what's the roadmap and certifications should I follow as a beginner?

I've been working as a SOC analyst for the past 3 years. How can I transition into GRC? As a SOC professional, what aspects of governance, risk, and compliance should I focus on...?

Hi! I'm currently in healthcare and would like to transition to GRC. What courses/certs would you recommend for someone who is starting from scratch? Especially if I want to go into GRC related to healthcare? I figure I'd have a better chance of eventually landing a job that way. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I want to start a career in GRC, but I'm confused about where to start. I need help.

Hello, Great video but very confusing. You start off by saying that GRC is an area that is normally easier to start off in but then you say that you can’t get a certification unless you’re already working five years. How would you gain employment if you don’t have the experience and can’t even get a valuable certification to demonstrate basic knowledge?

For getting into GRC, would you recommend WGU's BS in IT Management business degree?

As you're cybersecurity professional I hope you prefer to us the best cybersecurity laptops witch it's: - 1- bearing hard working 💪 2-bettry life meaby 10 hours breey a day. 3- bearing overheating in country's temperature 49 C . 4- powerful : stay with me for 3 years at least . 5- srong hardware.

Hi Friend, I have 4 +yrs of experience in RSA Archer in India.I have a Certification in RSA Archer. I recently moved to Sydney a month ago with 482 dependent visa. I am looking for a JOB into RSA Archer. I didn't find any jobs particularly for RSA Archer. What is the best way you can suggest. Can I get a job by doing GRC certifications with my RSA Archer experience or do I need to change my path. I am in great confusion to get job. Expecting your valuable suggestion.

For the entry-level job in grc, it is possible to hire someone that knows nothing about it but he/ she has a passion for it?

Hi UnixGuy. Does the Certification and Accreditation process (C&A) fall under GRC?

Hi Unixguy, just want to kindly ask you again, Lots of videos and job searching engine say that GRC is mostly needed for public sector ( Govt, etc ). Is this true ? what is the percentage comparison between GRC job in public and private sector ? Thankyou

I have my CISM, is this cert beneficial in the GRC space?

Hi sir, recently I got selected in to risk and compliance or information technology auditor job profile. I would like to know how is it different from cybersecurity GRC plz

Can you do GRC work fully remote or do I have to go into the office every day??
