Check out this post for the discussion that is the basis of our conversation on this week’s episode co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Geoff Belknap (@geoffbelknap), CISO, LinkedIn. Joining me is our guest, Sasha Pereira, vp of infrastructure and CISO, WASH.

In this episode:

• Is working the help desk a great place to get entry level cyber security skills?

• So why is it so often overlooked or even looked down upon? 

• What kind of experience do you need?

• What is the ideal path to break into the cybersecurity industry?
