Infosec Job Roles

mnashe

Hi,

I've been doing a lot of reading on the site and I see a lot of posts where people ask "what's the best certification to land an IT job". The typical response (and correct one) is "what area of security are you looking to work in". It got me thinking, is there a good resource that goes over the various Infosec job roles/responsibilities, to help someone decide what area interests them?

We could hit the job boards, but sometimes the titles vs what the responsibilities are make it confusing.

I think this would be helpful for a lot of people on the boards (including myself)

Discussed a lot here, but here it goes again.

Great, now my coworkers think I look at anime stuff at work, or in general.
