Diving into Cybersecurity: Completing Module 1 of TryHackMe's Pre-Security Path
I just wrapped up Module 1 of the Pre-Security learning path on TryHackMe! This module provided a solid foundation in both offensive and defensive security, offering hands-on experience and insights into cybersecurity careers.
On the offensive security side, I learned the fundamentals of ethical hacking by legally and safely exploiting a vulnerable online banking application. This hands-on challenge deepened my understanding of how attackers think and operate.
Switching to defensive security, I took on the role of a defender, successfully preventing an ongoing cyber attack and exploring key mitigation strategies. This experience highlighted the importance of securing systems against real-world threats.
Beyond the technical skills, this module also shed light on the various career paths in cybersecurity, expanding my perspective on professional opportunities in this ever-evolving field.
Excited to continue the journey—on to the next module! 🚀
