They will run into each other in the future. I had been working in cloud computing for a few years, then became a SOC manager which is all cyber security, and now I&#39;m a digital lead for a company basically explaining them to CEO/CTO/CISOs who don&#39;t really fully understand them.<br /><br />In any event, get a few certifications to start the process. Security+, Cloud Essentials+ are 2 good ones from CompTIA. ISACA is another good brand that has certs. You&#39;ll need them to break into a ny entry level position now.
