It’s hard to find good podcasts about cybersecurity.

In fact, I’ve listened to loads (trying to find the good ones).

Here are my Top 3:

• @DarknetDiaries
• @MaliciousLife
• @HackingHumansCW

What's your favourite podcast?

Here's a list of 43 cybersecurity YouTube channels:

1. Hak5 — General cybersecurity coverage.
2. The XSS Rat — Everything bounty hunting.
3. ITProTV — General cybersecurity coverage.
4. Infosec Institute — Cybersecurity awareness.
5. Cyrill Gössi — Extensive cryptography videos.

Hands-on experience beats everything in the cybersecurity industry.

If you're offered a job that may not seem like your ideal role:

Consider taking it away.

Gaining that initial experience can make it easier to pivot around.

30 cybersecurity search engines for researchers:

1. Dehashed—View leaked credentials.
2. SecurityTrails—Extensive DNS data.
3. DorkSearch—Really fast Google dorking.
4. ExploitDB—Archive of various exploits.
5. ZoomEye—Gather information about targets.

Do you consider the "freemium" model to be free?

I ask this because a lot of businesses will use this model to claim, that they are in fact a free service.

Anyone with an Internet connection can get into cybersecurity with nothing but a laptop:

@rootme_org is free.
@LetsDefendIO is free.
@Vulnmachines is free.
@hackthebox_eu is free.
@RealTryHackMe is free.
@OverTheWireCTF is free.

The resources are already out there.

You don't need someone that's highly regarded in cybersecurity to help you.

Instead, speak with someone who is a few steps ahead of you.

This is true for any profession.

10 resources if you're trying to get into cybersecurity:

@echoCTF
@rootme_org
@TCMSecurity
@PentesterLab
@LetsDefendIO
@Vulnmachines
@certifiedsecure
@hackthebox_eu
@RealTryHackMe
@OverTheWireCTF

These will save you 100s of hours.

"How do I get started in cybersecurity?"

It's quite simple, you start by starting.

- Advice is not starting.
- Planning is not starting.
- Information is not starting.

None of these things are starting.

The only way you can learn how to do something, is by doing it.
