Yes, but you can't be a CISSP or SOC monkey - that has no future.

You need to be an actual Software Engineer who understands development fundamentals, OS internals, web dev fundamentals, algorithms, etc as well as offensive and defensive concepts.

To many "cybersecurity" graduates in North America aren't even qualified to do L1 IT Helpdesk, which is a shame because the IT to Security talent pipeline is critical (along with the SRE, SWE, and ML to security pipeline).
