Yup just got my bachelor's in cyber security in May.
I'm pretty interested in learning about cyber security.
Could you point me in a good direction to learn some of the fundamentals and basic aspects?

Preciate that fam. I did see back home(Detroit) had plentiful high paying jobs, but being born and raised there 18 years I wouldn't recommend anybody move thereI want to use it in my environment too, but we're currently in consolidation. NOTHING is moving. Not even IT due to the retirements.
Texas - Dallas, Austin, and Houston
Cali - Silicon Valley
Washington - Seattle
DMV - D.C. and Virginia (especially with certs and/or security clearance)
Other honorable mentions: Chicago (IL,) Provo (UT,) Detroit (MI)
@757bred if you don't mind me asking, where in Largo? My parents live in Upper Marlboro, but I moved out to Accokeek. Got promoted back around the way to Largo so I'm going to look for a place around there.I'm in Largo. I love it, close to the Metro, FedEx, tons of shopping and right off of 95.

Not sure about any good books for a beginner but I liked Guide to Security Fundamentals by Mark Ciampa.
Woke up today with a new sense of purpose. I created webpages in the past back in Tech School during my time in the AF, but not in a enterprise environment. What skills do I need to be a entry level developer? I'm on Codecademy.com learning about Java and HTML. I'm wondering will my military experience, secret clearance, and with me learning about these languages give me a decent shot?
anyone got any hookups for any IT positions in NYC. just retired from doing 5 years as a IT specialist in the military. looking for something
I'd like to know about this as well. We use VMware at work, but I'd like to get more practice with it . Its either they have some trial version that I can play with, or I may just have to plunder it.Is anyone here familiar with setting up a VMWare lab just tinker with and learn? My boy works for a gov't agency and said they're looking to hire a few ppl who know ESX and vSphere.
VMware's ESXi/vCenter is free, there is no trial required. You can find any old hardware you have (or new) and install ESXi on it. Once ESXi is installed on that hardware, you can load vSphere on your workstation and start building/creating VMs on the ESXi host.I'd like to know about this as well.

Thank you kind sir. WIll be installing it on my box.VMware's ESXi/vCenter is free, there is no trial required. You can find any old hardware you have (or new) and install ESXi on it.

Agreed. If you happen to have VMWare Workstation, you can nest ESXi servers (it's a crazy rabbit hole).
I'm not sure if you can nest ESXi in Virtual Box or Hyper-V.
Also, a great book is Mastering VSphere. They're up to 5.5 edition.
VMware Fusion is the Workstation equivalent for Mac.Thanks fellas...can I run it within Virtual Box on my Mac?
Are you trying to tie in the business aspect with? Like an IT Business/Requirement/Project Analyst or something? Or are you just trying to go purely an IT engineering field with it?I just graduated with BS in Business and I am looking to go into the IT field. I was going to take a few classes at a local community college to get a little more background. Would that be the best option or should I just learn it on my own. I'm trying to get a job in the IT area.

Even if you are taking college courses, have somewhat of a decent knowledge going into it will help. You trying to take networking, systems, security, or programming classes?
Whats the best cities for the IT market tho? I gotta get out of Florida even tho I love it but career wise it might not be the move. Florida job market is just terrible.
Depends on the spectrum you going into and your experience. I got homies who got out the military who went into the networking side. You know Cisco and stuff like that. Both making 65 and 68K respectively. I got off into servers. We was Senior Desktop Engineers and I went for my MCSA and they did CCNA. Tampa not coming right with the Junior Sys Admin roles. IDK about Orlando, Jacksonville, or Miami. Florida is a developer market. If you get a decent paying job lets say 50+ you will enjoy yourself out here. Can't beat the weather, and women. I'm just in a unique situation.Damn, and I'm moving there in a few weeks lol
