A continuación, le explicamos cómo puede satisfacer la creciente necesidad de habilidades de ciberseguridad en las carreras de sistemas de telecomunicaciones.

Telecommunication systems are very complex and are implemented in different ways as per requirement of business and security desired. Complexity arises due to vast and varied use cases. Such systems are prone to weak points in the network because of cost optimisation and flexibility to cope up with customer satisfaction. What I believe is to deeply understand the weak points in network by understanding the system thoroughly on its unique features and capabilities👍

For upskilling your way up; 1. Gain foundational knowledge in networking and telecom systems 2. Acquire cybersecurity basics i.e security concepts such as encryption, firewalls, VPNs, intrusion detection systems and the likes. And also security protocols such as SSL/TLS, IPSec and others used to secure communications. 3. Proceed into advanced cybersecurity topics with proven certifications. 4. Also some specialized telecom security knowledge; 5G security, IoT security etc. 5. Lastly I will add, mentorship and projects.

The need for continuous learning in the cybersecurity field cannot be overemphasized. Always be willing to learn more and never get discouraged. Consistency is the key.

Set learning goals by identifying key areas on emerging technologies and security challenges specific to telecom systems and infrastructure. Also subscribe to industry resources; newsletters, blogs, podcasts, webinars, research papers and whitepapers. Coupled with continuous education and professional certifications. Either through online courses or university programs. Develop soft skills and also assess your existing skills regularly. By integrating these practices into your routine, you'll ensure that your skills remain relevant and cutting-edge in the rapidly evolving field of telecommunications cybersecurity.

First and foremost, try and find an industry job opportunity to expose you to that particular telecom system which will enable you to gain practical hands-on in your field of work. Also you need to identify some lab environments; virtual labs to practice cybersecurity skills in controlled environments. Lastly, take up personal projects or volunteer work opportunities on real-world telecom security projects for an invaluable hands-on experience.

1. Join professional associations, especially cybersecurity organizations and telecom societies. 2. Attend conferences and industry events happening in town. 3. Leverage social media and online platforms to connect with industry professionals, join relevant groups, and engage with posts related to cybersecurity and telecommunications. Share industry insights and participate in discussions to increase your visibility. To mention few, LinkedIn, Twitter, GitHub & Stack Overflow are great platforms to consider. 4. Engage in online community forums and contribute to publications. 5. Follow up and maintain relationships. Actively engaging in these networking strategies will enable one to build a strong and diverse network for career growth.
