Hello All!

I'm grateful to have found this group and look forward to learning more about information assurance and security.
I've worked in IT adjacent roles within a large fintech company for just under nine years now, the most recent being Business Risk Manager. After years of working in PCI compliance and payment acceptance compliance, I've decided to pivot into cyber security. I am set to begin a 12-week cyber security boot camp hosted by Emory University in two weeks to prepare for the Security+ and CISSP certification exams. I also hope to utilize the resources available via TechExams to complement what I'll learn through the boot camp.
Thank you in advance for any support and guidance you provide. I hope to do the same for others as well.

Welcome to this community. Don't hesitate to ask questions, there are many people here who are Sec+ and/or CISSP. -

Welcome to TE and good luck on that mind-melting bootcamp! The Security+ and CISSP have a lot of overlapping material, so the combo makes sense. It sounds like you have enough RM and compliance experience to get the full CISSP cert.

Thanks for the warm welcome, @JDMurray! I appreciate your input. I spent quite a bit of time hemming and hawing over pathways to break into the InfoSec space. Though I wish I'd decided sooner, I'm glad to be on my way finally.
