Protect those who&nbsp;could not&nbsp;protect&nbsp;themselves&nbsp;and stop the bad guys who thought&nbsp;violence was the answer. Now, with everything going on it changed my perspective and made me want to change my career&nbsp;goal. Before starting my&nbsp;first&nbsp;year of high school, I&nbsp;had a long talk with my old&nbsp;tutor about the expectations and&nbsp;or&nbsp;goals that needed to be set so I could pass high school with no problem.&nbsp;One&nbsp;late-night drive home from&nbsp;getting food&nbsp;we were listening to the radio and heard something&nbsp;about&nbsp;cybersecurity&nbsp;and jobs&nbsp;opening&nbsp;in&nbsp;several ways. I had&nbsp;gone&nbsp;back&nbsp;to do&nbsp;some research and saw the amount&nbsp;of money that was offered to be a cyber specialist.&nbsp;At first it was all about the&nbsp;money,&nbsp;but I was young so&nbsp;that is&nbsp;all I cared about. Getting into my junior year, I had taken a cyber class and I loved it!&nbsp;Typing in codes and learning the basics of what codes to use for certain events was&nbsp;incredibly fun.&nbsp;I had only done that for a year and everything we did in the class was bigger than just money.&nbsp;However, even though I&nbsp;desire&nbsp;cybersecurity as my career goal I have&nbsp;not decided&nbsp;exactly&nbsp;what positions I could&nbsp;do&nbsp;because there are so many jobs or positions that are opening in IT.&nbsp;Another&nbsp;reason&nbsp;I chose to do cybersecurity was&nbsp;because&nbsp;I have always&nbsp;enjoyed using&nbsp;technology and&nbsp;you have the choice to work from home or come&nbsp;to&nbsp;work.&nbsp;I am still a novice in this field, but with just the right teacher I can achieve many things and one day teach those the way of the white&nbsp;hats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome fellow&nbsp;readers,&nbsp;I will be&nbsp;telling you&nbsp;why&nbsp;I am&nbsp;interested in cybersecurity technology&nbsp;and how it all started.&nbsp;Growing&nbsp;up I had always wanted to be a police officer.
