Currently an instructional designer, Jedediah Adams has unfortunately
experienced the effects of cybersecurity breaches first-hand – in the
form of identity theft. But the mess he was left to clean up ultimately
led him to a cybersecurity career so he can help others avoid what he
had to deal with.
“For the last couple of years, I have been learning code and digging into the web applications that are offered by my company in an effort to make the system more secure – even though it is entirely outside the scope of my job requirements,” he said.
If you think about your gas, electricity or plumbing, you'll realize there's a whole range of things going on behind the scenes to safely and effectively deliver your utilities. Industrial plants and sanitation facilities, citywide and nationwide networks of infrastructure and even the wires and pipes in your home create a sophisticated system that secures the basic foundations of modern living.
But unless you work in one of those industries directly, you probably don't know much about these systems. Outside of DIYers who take on wiring and plumbing projects themselves, the great majority of your interaction with these service suppliers happens when you're getting set up or when something breaks.
Pursuing his MBA with a concentration in data analytics (and maintaining a 4.0 GPA) and working full time means he has a full plate, but Adams is on a mission. In fact, in just a few short months he earned his CompTIA A+, CompTIA Network+ and CompTIA Security+ certifications – and plans to take the CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+) exam soon.
