InfoSec is no longer reserved for those with the right degrees and certifications, or willing to pay the price for hacking into something. Now we can find university curriculum built upon the success stories touting professionals who went from "zero to hero". Yet, while careers in Information Security are a hot topic, getting there isn't a straightforward journey for many. We need pilots to navigate the uncharted realms of this evolving field, willing to risk turbulence, trust their sense of direction through uncertainty and engineer what they need as and when they need it. I want to share my flight plan with you.
