Cyber Security Analyst Review

Collating and reviewing evidence submitted against open risks found via Pentest teams to ensure it meets the required level to close. Creating reporting for the ongoing tracking of open risks and what is required to close within SLA.

Everything I have learnt about cyber security has been through my apprenticeship, although I had some interest in the area, being able to contextualise the learning in real time via hands on learning through my job has accelerated my learning experience.

Although I wish it was more tailored to suit the deeply technical area of Cyber Security I work in, it has given me a good base to develop from.

Overall I found it to be structured quite well, although as previously stated my only feedback would be to at least point learners in the direction of more technical areas if that is what their role requires, I appreciate this wouldn't make sense in the context of the program.

100%, employer has been great throughout and has clearly tried very hard to ensure the success of the learners.

DLCs have been great, they have provided everything that has been expected of them in my opinion.

I would not be able to conduct my day to day role without the understanding that this qualification has provided me with.

No.

Yes

Great company, great benefits, competitive salaries and amazing initiatives such as this, getting paid whilst learning is not an easy thing to come by and I have greatly appreciated the opportunity.

To try and look past the overly complex job descriptions that can often be listed when applying and still try to aim for an area of the company you wish to excel in, bringing enthusiasm to a role can often be enough to succeed.
