Cybersecurity is an increasingly important part of today’s digital economy, with professionals needed across different functions to help organisations protect their systems, information and digital operations. But what does working in cybersecurity actually involve, and how can someone explore a career in this field?

Join Dr. Lee Hing Yan, Volunteer Career Advisor (VCA), for a practical 45-minute introduction to the cybersecurity landscape and the career opportunities within it.

The session will provide participants with an accessible overview of what cybersecurity is and introduce the different types of roles available across the profession. Participants will also learn about relevant certifications, how these may support different career pathways, and considerations when deciding which learning or certification route to pursue.

For professionals considering a career transition, Dr. Lee will share insights into approaching a switch into cybersecurity, including understanding transferable skills, identifying possible entry points and considering how previous professional experience could support the transition.

The sharing will conclude with an overview of potential cybersecurity career pathways, helping participants better understand how different roles, skills and certifications may connect as they develop their careers.

This session is suitable for anyone curious about cybersecurity or considering whether the field could be a possible next career direction.
