I am constantly being asked by my students and other people looking to get into the cyber security workforce where they should start and what discipline they should go in to. Of course this is not an easy question to answer since everyone has their own strengths and work passions.

I found an article that deals with these along with other issues which I found informative. The author creates a Career Triad which addresses Education, Experience and Training. I would suggest that if you are in a quandary about where to start your career in cyber security, you take a look at this article.
