Background

About Henry Olson

Aspiring Cybersecurity professional, currently enrolled in Springboard's Cybersecurity Boot camp. The current boot camp I am enrolled in is a course made up of 380+ hours of hands-on cybersecurity material, with 1-on-1 industry expert mentor oversight. I have been a machinist for 7 years and just wasn't feeling challenged enough in the work I was doing. What really drew me into the Cybersecurity role, was wanting to learn more about networking systems and how people find and discover vulnerabilities or weaknesses in those systems. The thing I love most so far about this field is I am given the freedom and ability to think outside the box on how I approach different subjects. I also love that I am able to learn ethical hacking, and network weaknesses. When I learn about a weakness I become eager to see if my own home network is up to date or is vulnerable to those weaknesses. What I am currently looking for is new connections in the Cybersecurity industry, an opportunity to learn and develop my current skills, and a career in the ever growing information technologies sector.
