I personally think this is all by design to create more jobs in the booming snake oil infosec industry. Hear me out before you get the pitchforks.
I've started seeing some of the most incompetent people I used to work with are suddenly now "director of security", "senior infosec" and things like that. These were people that struggled to remember what an IP address was when I worked with them. I highly doubt they all suddenly decided to actually learn anything about how computers work.
The icing on my anecdote proof cake is my junkie brother that lives with my mom contacted me to ask about how he could get into the computer security industry about 2 months ago,.
- tru3_power 3y agoIt’s been like this. There are a lot of people that got into security without really a passion for it. Lots of bs. The way I think of it is all of this revolves around the fire/heat generated from finding vulns (on both sides). If ur not finding vulns/really understand/actively trying to understand then ur just blowing smoke and trying to stay warm. That’s just how it is.
