Cyber Secs with Simons

A real beginner’s journey into IT & cybersecurity — no shortcuts.

I’m Thomas, a 30-year-old starting fresh in cybersecurity/IT, documenting the path from zero experience/skills to job-ready.

I don't come from a tech background—just basic computer skills and a willingness to learn. I've just finished the prerequisites for my Bachelor’s in Cybersecurity, and we will start building skills through courses, labs, certificates, and hands-on practice.

This channel follows the real journey of learning: math, IT foundations, cybersecurity skills, certifications, networking, mistakes, and wins—while balancing a full-time job and college. Occasionally I will also play some games. 

Certifications I am actively working on are:
CompTIA A+
CompTIA Network+
Coursera: IT Support Fundamentals

If you’re starting from zero, feeling behind, or changing careers—you’re in the right place.

Let's do this together one "Sec" at a time. 

Have patience, this isn't a race, it's a marathon.
