This is the best cloud security engineer role explanation that I have ever seen.

@NicolasMoy 2 года назад

Thank you!

This video was very helpful! I appreciate you for taking the time to make this and for sharing your path with us :). I'm currently trying to get into Cloud Security. I recently got my Sec+ and studying for my CYSA+ and Pentest+; testing next month. I do have a few vms setup to play around on to make all my studies come together and make sense. I've been in IT for about 12 years now and decided it's time to move up. Cloud Sec definitely is the move for me; and I care to be more on the configuration side than the GRC side of things.! So once again, thanks for the info! I got everything else I needed from the comments and responses.

Hi Nicolas! I appreciate how you explained it so well! I’m somehow in the same path, from sys engineer to cloud computing engr. And now thinking what to pursue next, and I hope to be cloud security engr/architect. However, moving to that field is kinda frustrating as no one would hire me since I don’t have security background. Is Comptia Cloud+ certification and CSA CCSK a good one? These are the only two certification that doesnt need any experience requirements. Also what type of class do you suggest for us (who has background experience in cloud) to take?

@NicolasMoy Год назад

Hi and thanks for your comment! The Cloud+ isn't a very valuable certification as its vendor-agnostic and wont prove to the hiring manager that you can perform the task necessary for the job. I would focus more of your time on getting AWS, Azure, or GCP certified and snagging that CSA CCSK in the process.

@rashmishrivastava4676 2 года назад

@DallasFort1857 Месяц назад

I have the same aspirated and goal set in my mind to complete and wanted to ask you with your experience is cloud computing commonly outsourced overseas? I'm considering ultimately ulizing my post 9/11 GI bill at WGU to obtain a degree and certifications simultaneously in Cloud computing.. however I'm on the fence about this and might go with cybersecurity instead because I believe cloud computing/engineering similar to programming/software engineer can be easily outsourced?

@biguptodatman 2 года назад

Nicolas, I am currently Cloud Security Engineer…And I am more interested in sharpening my skills into cloud security Architecture…There’s much content but no direct paths…Even in the Architectural rolls there more and rolls … Do you have any points and how do get define as a Architect … You give some points and how to firm that roll.

Hello Eng.Nicolas, I really enjoy your knowledgeable and driven presentation. Keep it up, Sir. I have a question for you. I'm a Junior in Security but am in dilemma about pursuing Cyber Security Engineer and Cloud Security Engineer Major, BS. As an expert in this field, Both fields have a promising future, high income, demand, and outlook. In Particular, Which one is more lucrative? Which has a better job outlook/security? I highly commend your thoughts.

@NicolasMoy 4 месяца назад

They are all lucrative. It depends on your skill level, location, ability to negotiate compensation... Too many variables!

Yeah it should. You may run into limitations when trying to run VMs. So it helps to have an intel based machine

@sarahfuntanilla6542 2 года назад

Hello Nicolas, I did not see any updates from OCI Exams from your end did you take any exams aside from Foundation? I already passed 4 exams right now like 1z0-1084-21, 1072, 1094 and 931, foundation is very easy its like a Kinder Garden exam since its open notes and most questions are in sample questions too. I'm planning to take the OCI Security Exams too when I'm done with the 997-21 exam, I hope I can passed too.

@souvikghosh6966 2 года назад

Learn some of the DevOps first. Learn cybersecurity basics and some cryptographic tools. Do some practice on network security and get certification of one of the cloud provider like AWS, AZURE or GCP. Then, you can gradually move towards cloud security role.

@BadWeatherfreak 2 года назад

What are your thoughts on cloud architect vs engineering?

@NicolasMoy 2 года назад

I think that they are fairly related. The engineering side can be more hands on in the cloud native security configurations. Architecture tends to be more high level planning, risk management, and advisory... But it all depends on where you work!

@yas1467 2 года назад

what roles in cloud or cybersecurity are not code heavy?

@NicolasMoy 2 года назад

Anything within governance risk and compliance is pretty non-coder related.

@myway8950 Год назад

Amazing video. I think my issue is lack of experience in cloud security. I am currently an IAM specialist earning 110k yearly. How do i transition into cloud security keeping my salary the same or whatever skill i need to learn on the side?

@NicolasMoy Год назад

Well sense you know IAM, I start by choosing a cloud environment and learning how IAM plays a role there. You can pick AWS, Azure or GCP and begin learning the basics... How does the cloud work... What are the services and architecture components. Maybe even get certified! Then begin to learn how IAM plays a role in it all (Native and Third Party) and go from there!

@myway8950 Год назад

@@NicolasMoy is cyber security too far away from IAM? I have been thinking to do CYSA+ and pentest+ but after doing some research, it appears though IAM is very infrastructure focused and Cloud related but not really security as much. Is this accurate from your experience if you know?
