First up is a technical segment called "Paul's Linux Hacks". I finally got around to releasing a bunch of scripts and tutorials for Linux that I've created over the years. We'll go over scripts that can give you a supply chain security report and help you update your Arch-based Linux systems and the tutorial for using Linux KVM/Qemu/Libvirt. Repo is here: https://github.com/pasadoorian/Linux_Hacks

Our field is booming! Cybersecurity jobs are projected to grow 33 percent through 2033, far outpacing the average 4 percent growth across all jobs. (And yes, those stats could be made up, but they sound nice, eh?) Yet newcomers often feel paralyzed by where to start. The truth? There's no single "right path," but there are proven strategies that work. The field needs people at all levels, and you don't need a four-year degree to break in. We'll discuss all the details, including a list of projects for beginners in Cybersecurity, plus plenty of non-technical suggestions!
