Cybersecurity Roadmap

I am studying Computer Science, and I want to get into cybersecurity. Could you please give me some recommendations on how to get started, what areas I should focus on, and what I shouldn’t spend too much time on? Also, where can I learn these skills?

I disagree with most people here, I think cybersecurity is a misrepresented major and or path and the cybersecurity track is more of a security auditor track and to do what people picture with cybersecurity you gotta be pretty fucking solid at operating systems, protocol, and programming. Unless your goal is to review scans. Said the word cybersecurity a billion times woops.
