The_Same_12_Months

I am into n a Network engineering role but I would prefer to be more security focused. Ideally doing something like malware analysis or reverse engineering. I am definitely not a programmer and really struggle with writing tools. Is there still a need for that old school skill set or has it been mostly automated away?

Thank you.

That's a great idea it will definitely help me sharpen my skills. Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. I should have mentioned i have worked with everything from assembly to python and understand them but building a program from scratch isn't interesting to me.

I agree i should continue my network security path at least for awhile.

Thank you I am pursuing cybersecurity and I am probably more well seasoned than some of the people. I'm glad there is a transition path from operational network security to a more specialized role.

Are there any bountie programs you would recommend? Most of the ones I've seen are web application focused.
