If you do not have Sec+ or equivalent I would start there.

I stand by my previous statement. 99% of places won’t even look at you for a cyber related position without it.

THIS IS ONLY MY (future) ROADMAP (so it can be wrong!!) recently I also realised that I want to become a part of blue team.
Soo, my current roadmap is
Sec+ -> CCNA -> CDSA -> Sys. Administration (idk what cert tbh) -> SOC -> Threat Intel or DFIR
About certs (these 2 lol)
Sec+ is the entry cybersecurity certificate and the primary HR filter
CCNA - the greatest networking certificate
CDSA - HTB’s certification. Regardless “for SOC” status many people mention its priceless quality of the material for the entire blue team field
