FreeCodeCamp, Cybersecurity, & Building a Portfolio

Does completing the courses on free code camp prepare you for a career in cyber security? What are some of the things I can do to build a portfolio with little to no background?

LMGTFY:

My advice: start with PICOctf and overthewire.

You will learn as you go.

The freeCodeCamp curriculum has some content about information security (Information Security certification), but that isn’t the focus of freeCodeCamp. There is a wider range of topics on freeCodeCamp news and their YouTube channel, as well.

Security is one area in which industry-recognized certifications do exist, such as CISSP, which you can look into.
