Comment on Ask HN: Starting a career in security at 40?parent

Comments

Do you have any resources / direction to give to a software engineer who'd want to learn more about security?

As a full stack web engineer I feel like I know nothing about security (just like most people) and I'd love to have more knowledge about it, even maybe work on this.

I have a small design and engineering studio, and might be interested in getting into that kind of services, if I discover that I get interested in this enough.

One option is to go through the security stackexchange and/or the cryptography one. Pick a tag, sort by votes and go through the questions and responses.

https://crypto.stackexchange.com/

Look for a local group such as Security BSides - go to the meetups, get to know other professionals, learn from them, and get involved with their events.
