I Got Both Google Cybersecurity and and ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity. Should You?

The Google Cybersecurity Certificate and the ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity are two of the most popular cybersecurity certifications available. Both certifications cover a wide range of topics, including network security, application security, and security operations. However, there are some key differences between the two certifications. Both Google Cybersecurity Certificate and the ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity are considered entry-level certifications The Google Cybersecurity Certificate is very friendly for people who did not come from a computer background, but if you already know IT, Linux, SQL, or Python, you will have an advantage here. You will also learn some practical cybersecurity tools, such as SIEM and Splunk log reading, and you will end up trying to write incident report logs, short analysis reports, and so on.   The ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity is more focused on theoretical and base level knowledge, with a bit more discussion on the differences among in...

What have I learned from giving advice at Subreddit /r/cybersecurity_help?

 After I got my cybersecurity certificates and certifications, I decided to hang out in subreddit /r/cybersecurity_help for a while, as that's where people go for help. I've noticed the questions tend to come in 3 major categories: a) I noticed something odd. Could I have been hacked?  b) I REALLY have been hacked, what do I do now?  c) I did something stupid! Could I have been hacked?  I have found that some people are just super-nervous when it comes to technology, as if they can be hacked everywhere doing nothing, while others are almost completely oblivious to the risks.  Let's discuss each in turn.  a) I noticed something odd. Could I have been hacked? OP started noticing some oddities with his or her phone, and wonders if it's connected to some previous event.  EX1: Op got a call from the doctor's office. X minutes later a call with caller ID "Health Center" arrived. Op asked for more details, and was hung up on. Op wants to know if the spammer h...

So I bought a 6-key macro keyboard with a twist knob... how to program it?

One day, I was browsing Temu, when I came across this 6-key macro keyboard with a twist knob, and it's for a ridiculous price of like... $13.93 with free shipping.  So I ordered one.  It's here, and it's exactly as advertised... Except for one thing: there is no manual, and no driver. There is NO paper in the box either. And the listing has no instructions.  However, it is basically this item on Amazon:  https://www.amazon.com/Programming-Keyboard-Mechanical-Photoshop-Software/dp/B0B7B4MP29/ At least the Amazon seller put up a link to their copy of the driver: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MvJGXrs-HVSmthIK4Z8NJZKMB8Ha4ZSr/view Which I have scanned and tested. And it works for the Temu one too. It's the same board.  The program needs to be unzipped and copied to a directory on your HD. It has no "installer".  The EXE is called "MINI Keyboard V02.1.1" The interface is also pretty crap, But basically, it goes like this.  The "keys" are mapp...
