Q1. What motivated you to choose Cyber Security as a career?

I choose Cyber Security because it is a growing field with many opportunities to learn and develop new cyber security skills. I wanted to build a career in a domain where I could continuously learn and improve myself.

For me, choosing a clear career path was important because we cannot focus on many different paths at the same time. Once I decided to pursue Cyber Security, I focused on building my knowledge and skills in this field.

Q2. What was one of the biggest lessons you learned during your Cyber Security journey?

One of my biggest lessons was understanding the difference between theoretical knowledge and practical application.

Sometimes, everything can seem correct when we learn it theoretically, but while applying the same concept practically, we may make mistakes. I experienced this several times during my learning journey.

Instead of becoming discouraged, I treated those mistakes as learning opportunities. They helped me understand my weaknesses, improve my skills, and learn how to turn challenges into successful outcomes.

Q3. What advice would you give to freshers starting a career in Cyber Security?

My advice to freshers is to first decide which Cyber Security domain they want to pursue.

After choosing a path, they should focus on building strong Network security fundamentals. Having a clear understanding of the basics makes it easier to learn advanced concepts and technologies later.

My main advice is to choose a career path and make your fundamentals strong.

Q4. How did practical learning help you develop your Cyber Security skills?

Practical learning helped me understand how Cyber Security concepts actually work in real situations.

While theoretical knowledge gives you an understanding of concepts, hands-on practice helps you apply that knowledge. It also gives you an opportunity to identify mistakes and learn how to solve them.

This practical experience helped me become more confident in applying what I learned.

Q5. How was your learning experience at SKILLOGIC?

My learning experience at SKILLOGIC was very good. The course followed a structured learning path, which made the different Cyber Security concepts easier to understand.

One of the major advantages for me was the practical hands-on experience provided during the training. The learning was not limited to theory. We also learned how different concepts and tools are used practically.

I would recommend SKILLOGIC to students who are starting their Cyber Security journey or professionals looking to change their career.

Q6. How were the SKILLOGIC trainers?

The trainers were very helpful and knowledgeable. Whenever I had doubts, I could ask questions and get them clarified.

They explained both theoretical concepts and practical applications. They also introduced us to different tools and explained how they could be used.

Another positive aspect was that the trainers encouraged us to explore additional tools and learn beyond the course content. Their guidance made the learning experience more valuable.

Q7. What is your current role after completing your Cyber Security training?

I am currently working as a Cyber Security Engineer at Techowl Infosec Pvt. Ltd.

SKILLOGIC Cyber Security training and practical learning helped me develop a stronger understanding of Cyber Security concepts and how they are applied in professional environments.

I am now focused on continuing my learning and gaining more experience in the field.

Q8. What are your career goals for the next five years?

Over the next five years, I want to grow from being a Cyber Security Engineer into a professional with strong experience in Security Operations and Incident Response.

I also want to focus more on Cloud Security. My long-term goal is to move toward a role such as a Cloud Security Architect or a similar advanced Cyber Security position.

Q9. What are your views on AI and Cyber Security?

AI is growing rapidly, and I believe Cyber Security professionals need to learn how to use AI effectively.

Combining AI with Cyber Security can help professionals improve their capabilities and work more efficiently. I also want to learn more about AI and understand how it can be integrated with Cyber Security.

AI is something we cannot ignore, so learning how it works and how it can support Cyber Security is important for future professionals.

Q10. What is your message for students who want to build a career in Cyber Security?

My message to students is to choose a clear path, build strong fundamentals, and focus on practical learning.

Do not get discouraged when you make mistakes. Mistakes are part of the learning process. Instead, understand what went wrong, learn from the experience, and keep improving.

With a strong foundation, practical experience, and continuous learning, you can gradually grow and build a successful career in Cyber Security.
