Thanks for checking out IT Security Career!
I’m Jerod Brennen (@slandail), and I’m a security architect, advisor, speaker, and teacher. Although I originally went to school to be a music teacher, I’ve been working in infosec long enough to have earned every gray hair in my beard.
I put this site together in hopes of helping folks who want to make the move into an infosec/cybersecurity career. I work full-time in the infosec industry, and this site is a project that I thought might be useful to people with a desire to learn and passion for infosec.
The cool thing is that I’ve got nearly 20 years of infosec experience under my belt. Not only that, I’ve worked in multiple job roles, a number of which including hiring responsibilities.
That means you’re getting inside tips from an infosec veteran who has hired people just like you. Pretty cool, huh?
If you dig the site, great! If you know someone who might benefit from the info here, send a link their way. If you have ideas on how to make the site even more useful, send me a tweet or DM to Security Career on Twitter, and I’ll see what I can do.
If you want to connect with me online, you can hit me up on LinkedIn or Twitter.
Best of luck in your career endeavors!
