Cybersecurity analysts help guard an organization’s digital assets, constantly monitoring for and responding to security threats. Their work involves a blend of hunting for potential threats and reacting to incidents, requiring a keen eye for anomalies and strong problem-solving skills.

Most positions require a bachelor’s degree in cybersecurity, information technology, or a related field, with some employers preferring candidates with two to three years of experience in IT or security roles.
