Reflecting on Career Focus in Cybersecurity
Today, after reflecting on the Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity (NICE Framework), I've realized that my career interests strongly align with the “Design and Development” and “Oversight and Governance” categories.
I find design and development particularly exciting as experience in this category can allow me to innovate and create new technological solutions to address cybersecurity challenges, which is central to my goal of pioneering groundbreaking technologies.
Additionally, the Oversight and Governance category is crucial to my aspirations of leading a technology company; focusing my career on this area will provide me with essential experience in strategic planning, policy development, and risk management -- all of which are indispensable for successful leadership.
The Investigation category, which involves analyzing security incidents and performing forensic analysis, is integral to cybersecurity. However, it appeals to me the least regarding my career focus.
My primary focus remains on the proactive and strategic aspects of design and governance.
