I run a cybersecurity company working on systems, including medical devices, airplanes, and military weapons.
Here's the first step for everyone
It certainly helps to have an academic foundation in cybersecurity. A degree can be very useful but it's not necessarily required. I think the most important thing to have in this field is curiosity. If you have the curiosity to explore, learn about the field, and try things out, you don't necessarily need the degree to succeed. I also recommend looking into certifications. They're a great way to explore a variety of things and they show prospective employers that you have formal education.
