Career Paths in Cyber: How to Choose Your Lane

Six lanes into cybersecurity. One of them fits you better than the rest — and most people find that out three years in, by accident.

Tonight we fix that. We'll walk the real roles: what each one actually does, what the money looks like at each level, and how to tell which one matches how you're already wired. If you ran the CTF with us on September 9, bring your scores — we'll read them live as a career signal.

🎯 What We'll Cover
- The six lanes — SOC analyst, pentester, GRC, security engineer, threat intel, incident response — and what each one really does all day
- What the money looks like: entry, mid, senior, and what actually moves you between them
- Reading your CTF results as a career signal — the categories you crushed say more than a cert does
- Your first 90 days: the certs, labs, and portfolio that get you the interview
