As a beginner in cybersecurity,where do I start?Which certification do you suggest

[pmckenzie]

I would suggest starting with CCNA Cyber

CCNA Cyber Ops Certification

Today's organizations are challenged with rapidly detecting cybersecurity breaches and effectively responding to security incidents. Teams of people in Security Operations Centers (SOCs) keep a vigilant eye on security systems, protecting their organizations by detecting and responding to cybersecurity threats. CCNA Cyber Ops prepares candidates to begin a career working with associate-level cybersecurity analysts within SOCs.

In addition, the United States Department of Defense (DoD) has approved Cisco CCNA Cyber Ops Certification for inclusion in the DoD 8570.01-M for the CCSP Analyst and CCSP Incident Responder categories.

@john.lemire hi there! 

At this time, there are no changes to the current Cyber Ops certification track. Cisco continues to evaluate our training and certifications to ensure we are providing professionals with the most up-to-date skills needed to succeed in today's marketplace. Cyber operations skills are critical and will continue to be an important area for Cisco. Please look for future updates at Cisco.com/nextlevel.
