You don’t need a computer science degree to break into cybersecurity. Here’s how to launch your career using real-world skills, certifications, and strategic focus.

The Next Step in Your Cybersecurity Journey In our last post, we discussed the CIA Triad, the foundation of cybersecurity. Now, we’ll examine how these fundamental principles are violated by the most common types of cyber attacks. Just as a security guard knows where threats can come from, understanding our enemies in the digital world is the first step to protecting ourselves. 1. Phishing: The Most Common Form of Social Engineering Phishing is a social engineering tactic where cyber attackers try to trick you into revealing personal information (passwords, credit card numbers, etc.) through deceptive emails, messages, or websites. ...

Learn about the three core principles of cybersecurity: Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. This guide covers why they are crucial with simple examples.

Continuing the Journey: Exploring Cybersecurity with Python Welcome back to the second installment of my blog series on cybersecurity with Python! If you haven’t read the first blog . I highly recommend starting there to get an overview of the project and my goals. In the previous blog post, we embarked on a journey to develop multiple articles within this project, with a focus on cybersecurity. We explored various aspects such as Python integration, network penetration testing, and web scraping. The response and engagement from the readers were phenomenal, and I’m excited to continue sharing valuable insights and practical examples in this ongoing series. ...

Hello everyone! In this blog post, as someone who is passionate about cybersecurity, I aim to take a step towards developing cybersecurity applications using the Python programming language. Cybersecurity has become increasingly important in today’s world, so in this article, I will introduce some powerful Python libraries and explore how we can start working on security-related projects. Scapy When it comes to controlling network traffic, Scapy is an excellent choice. This library allows you to create, capture, manipulate, and analyze network packets. Scapy can be used for packet analysis, network discovery, intrusion detection, and even developing new network protocols. ...

We are excited to announce the release of a new Python-based “Random Password Generator.” This project aims to provide users with a simple and secure way to generate random passwords. Key Features Random and secure: The password generator utilizes the random and string modules in Python to create passwords that are both random and secure. Customizable length: Users can specify the desired length of the generated password, allowing flexibility based on their requirements. Easy to use: With a straightforward user interface, generating passwords is just a matter of running the script and providing the desired length. ...
