I'm getting my degree in cybersecurity. I'm just curious how the environment is in the Army cyber. If id be better off sticking with civilian side of things or going back in as cyber. Thanks.

Cyber is strategically a national weakness of ours. If you succeed there I suspect you will be rewarded and valued.

For example, if you were say a Managing Director for Network Security for say a well known tech firm the doorway to Direct Commission to as high as LTC based on your experience is open.

This is more of a personal question as to what you want to do with your career and direction you want to go in.

If my experience at AT the last couple of years is any indication, the environment is pretty laid back. I've been an OC/T at cyber shield and every year there has been a cyber CPT who wore a furry squirrel costume for several days during AT.
