Cyber Security Apprentice Review

I am on rotation through the digital cyber security function. Currently, I am working in digital intelligence as an intelligence analyst.

Threat modelling, threat intelligence, vulnerability management, penetration testing, networks, agile, a variety of soft skills, education and culture.

It is highly enjoyable and engaging. I am provided many opportunities to explore the topics that I am interested in.

It is very organised. We have a rotation plan to rotate through the business to ensure coverage of ALL KSB’s

I have a robust support network from my team and manager. The university also provide support where needed.

It is unrivalled. Email and phone support and most hours of the day.

personally, the qualification has not provided much value to my work. I have learnt industry standard concepts and practices in the work place that benefit the degree more rather than vice versa.

There are quarterly social events in the early careers network. Teams often to team building and meals to integrate and socialise.

Yes

An unrivalled support network and learning opportunity for people looking to start their career.

You should try make it to the office to make your face known, ask for opportunities to join projects, ask for support when needed and don’t be afraid to say your current work doesn’t correlate with your future aspirations and want to complete projects in line with them.
