Hello everyone!

I will talk about roadmap and some resources for Cyber Security

If you are beginner so, this roadmap is for you

First of all, you should see this post on my channel on telegram as this post contains 3 links one of them is playlist consists of 4 videos on YouTube and another video explains every specialization in details
These posts ,the playlist and the video will introduce you to the field and its specializations in general and in details

You should know that there are some important basics that must be studied before starting in the field to enter any specialty with comfort (Note: I have included almost everything you will need in the basics, including resources and platforms to which you can apply what you have studied)

The basics are:
1- Programming (4 playlists from Eng. Mohamed Abu-Hadhoud if you don’t know anything in programming or python if you take and know the basics of programming and according to the specialty you choose the programming languages that you should learn).

2- Operating Systems such as: Windows and Linux (Linux is very important) (Windows in CompTIA A+ course and Linux in CompTIA Linux+ course).

3- Networks (CompTIA Network+)
Note: If your specialty is far from networks or network security so, CompTIA Network+ is very enough.

4- A course that will introduce you to the field, its specializations, what it is based on, some of the concepts spread in the field, etc.. (CompTIA Security+).

Now I will post the links of each course with its resources:

1- 4 playlists of Eng.Mohamed Abu-Hadhoud or python

(Note: The latest version is the best in any international certificate, but if you cannot study it, there is no problem to study the older version.)
