Yeah infosec is pretty huge. Do you have an idea more specifically of what you want to do? Like what type of role are you looking for or skills would you like to have?

Hard to give you a definitive answer on this one. I’d say you’d be hard-pressed right now to pull that off without a direct referral or other networked way-in. Job market is condensing, lots of (experienced) out-of-work folks looking for new roles, etc… If you aren’t already in infosec, or you’re not a full-time dev with some security knowledge, it will be tough. Your best bet (roughly) on things to add to your skills/portfolio would be…

• Proficiency with one or more languages that your target role company uses (and evidence of this XP)
• In-depth knowledge of OWASP “stuff” (Top 10, ASVS, etc…)
• Practical XP with attacks/exploits (via experience, CTFs, trainings, Web Security Academy, etc…)
• Some applicable certs

Some other stuff you might find useful…

• Getting into infosec
• Boosting your portfolio

Li’l late, but I’ve been working on some re-design for my blog. I can’t overstate how much I hate CSS.

Nice! If anything worth sharing maybe you can do so here or on Mastodon. Cheers!

GL on the job hunt. Layoff season is here and I can just feel the market being squeezed rn.

Dope!

Ah nice. I’d be interested in checking yours out when you have a v1 ready. I have a page on my site that is a resume but always looking for inspiration on how else to design it, etc…

I endorse this. Hope you got your rest!!

Pretty much it seems. Based on the target I’ve seen some speculation it’s NSA, maybe even in collab with Apple (though I kinda doubt it). Pretty crazy regardless. A level of skill that is pretty unfathomable imo. I’ve seen full time Vuln researchers completely mind blown over this. I’m too n00b to even have my mind blown properly by this hahaha.

Windows 🤣
