The Log Files - Start Your IT Career with Practical Advice and Tips
In this episode, I break down everything you need to know about Cisco's CyberOps certification being updated to the Cisco Cybersecurity certification, effective January 21, 2025. This is more than just a name change—it’s a step forward in cybersecurity, with new AI-related topics and an updated exam (v1.2). Plus, I’ll go over important dates, including the last chance to take the current 200-201 CBROPS exam before the update.
Why does this matter? Cybersecurity is one of the hottest markets right now, with a high demand for roles like Security Operations Center (SOC) Analyst, Cybersecurity Specialist, Incident Responder, and Network Security Engineer. If you’re looking to break into cybersecurity, transition your career, or add security skills to your network engineering toolbelt, this certification is for you!
I also share my thoughts on how the CyberOps certification never got the attention it deserved, and why this rebranding to Cisco Cybersecurity will open doors for more professionals.
