Shivika has a Masters in Information Security from University of Texas at Dallas.
In this podcast we will talk about her journey as a small-town girl to the US. Her initial apprehensions about life in the States & how her parents stood by her. Shivika stresses on the Art of Personal Networking especially for freshers. To keep herself updated she follows ThreatPost.com and also recommends InfoSec forums like SecurityBsides. She believes organizations like SecurityBsides helps in building domain knowledge & also helps in building meaningful connections, both are valuable for InfoSec Students.
Drawing upon her life lessons she strongly recommends certification like CompTIA+ to build a composite knowledge about Information Security. Also encourages everyone to get certification in Cloud Platforms like Azure, AWS & GCP.
We also talk about the importance of having mentors for every key aspect of our lives.
She recommends the book "Think Like a Monk" by Jay Shetty.
