Hi guys! I am interested in cyber security and currently studying CS. I've done some PortSwigger and THM labs, and tried a few CTFs, but I'm still not sure which field to focus on for my career. I'm not very into the classic red team/blue team split (especially not into SIEM, SOC, or log-heavy roles). I'm also looking for something beyond just web hacking. Are there any cybersecurity areas that align more with core CS (like programming, systems, software) that you’d recommend exploring? Ideally something with good job opportunities rather than being mostly academic.
