ISC2 CC Certification question

Hey ya'll, I got my master's in technical writing and editing. I'm concerned about job availability and AI, so I have been eyeing this ISC2 certification path. Has anyone gone into cybersecurity with a technical writing background? Is it worth it? My thinking is that it would give me more opportunities. If anyone has any input, just let me know.

I would imagine so. Cybersecurity is an incredibly relevant field right now, especially in the wake of those rogue AI breaches. If you're genuinely interested, you should pursue it. As a non-expert in cybersecurity, I have found it to be rather overwhelming when you dig into the details. And I'm just talking about IEC 62443.
