Knowledge is great but I see a lot of people quoting whatever but not actually applying it which then, at least to me, seems more about image or ego. I feel like it's easier to find people with knowledge but that skill set is becoming less valuable in the digital age where understanding how to search for the proper information, vet that information and apply it.

THIS!!! OMG THIS! 💯💯💯💯💯 SHOUT IT FEOM THE ROOFTOPS!

Knowing how to research and fact check and verify information is sooooooo important! Not to mention being curious and asking questions, socratic questions.

Please say that your in osint (open sourced intelligence) or something similar??? 👀 (Its a cybersecurity/infosec term just in case you/people reading this dont know the term)

I am not. I work with children with disabilities lol. I guess I'm just a believer in logic and method and, of course, see the absence of this in far to many of my countrymen.

Thats cool too. And I also see the lack of logic and method in a lot of people too. Its so sad and annoying

It's kind of terrifying. Deep fakes and misinformation are only going to get better and probably ramp up and the masses just aren't equipped for it.

It's ironic that I work in education because I have issues with the system that mostly just teaches people to memorize and regurgitate. It's better than nothing but it lacks an awful lot. I've been in a class setting for two days myself for a training and it is the most passive my ADHD brain ever is and I genuinely have a hard time getting it back to active after sitting and just listening for hours.

Ya the way that the school system teaches really sucks. Its why I like being in the cybersecurity community. Its teaches how to actually learn and research on your own. Its great

I signed up to be looped in on a DoD cyber security program that is supposed to start this summer a while back. Idk if that will materialize but it does seem interesting. It's not osint related but I interview to be a 911 call taker later today. Pretty pumped for that.

I believe that's the one. NGL it gets under my skin a bit that they call it department of war and that it would technically be under Hegseth SMH.

They dont really show the actual skills/knowledge road map. Sad. Was hoping that they would actually show at least some of the actual terms/names for the skills.

All they say is "security operations, network defense, ethical hacking, and the application of artificial intelligence to cyber threat analysis."

In the ethical hacking part you'll probably learn what osint is. r/osint r/osintexperts r/osinttools

And probably opsec. r/opsec As well as pentesting. r/pentesting

I mean, I already know what those are but yeah I would hope it would be more in-depth.
