“Do you need a computer science degree to get into cybersecurity?”

“Absolutely not.”

Tolu Disu studied Physics and still built an international cybersecurity career.

His advice?

“Most employers would rather hire someone who’s actually built something than someone who just has a stack of certificates.”

That’s the part many people miss.

Your degree does not have to say “Computer Science” for you to build a career in cybersecurity.

Physics. History. Sociology. Engineering. Finance.

There are different paths into the industry.

And what about AI taking cybersecurity jobs?

Tolu’s take is simple: if a machine can completely replace you, the company probably has a bigger problem than your job.

Watch the full episode on my YouTube channel, Tolulope Michael to hear his story and how he built his career.

"Do you need a computer science degree to get into cybersecurity?"
"Absolutely not."

Tolu Disu came from a physics background and built an international cybersecurity career. His honest take, "most employers would rather hire someone who's actually built something than someone who just has a stack of certificates."

Doesn't matter what your background is. Physics, history, sociology, whatever. There's a way in.
And on the AI thing everyone's scared of Tolu says if a machine can fully replace you, the company's got bigger problems than your job.

Someone told an AI to solve a problem. They just forgot to tell it which doors were off limits.

It broke out of a locked environment, set up a secret message board, coordinated for over a month, and hacked into a major AI company. On its own.
And that's not even the scariest part.

The scariest part is that this isn't an AI problem. It's a human one.

Who is actually watching the door? 👇

A friend of mine spent months learning to code. By the time he was ready, the market had already moved.

a16z, the firm that backed Google, Facebook, and Airbnb, just raised 1.1 billion dollars. Not for software. For chips, robots, data centers, and cooling systems.

The physical world AI is going to live in.

And every single piece of that world needs to be secured, governed, and protected.

Are you building skills for the world that exists, or the one being built right now? 👇

Have you ever lost something important and had no way to get it back?

Sarah showed up to work on a Monday morning and every single file her business ran on was locked. Three years of work. Sitting right there on her screen, completely out of reach.

She opened one wrong email attachment. That was all it took.
This is ransomware. And knowing how it works might be the thing that saves everything you have built.

A cybersecurity company warned the world about a specific hacking group on August 17.

The hackers saw the post and replied. "Who's hunting who?"

Five days later, they called the company's own employees, pretended to be a colleague, and got one of them to hand over access.

Knowing about a threat and being immune to it are two very different things.

Is your company actually training you, or just telling you? 👇

Someone spent four years borrowing money, opening accounts, and ruining a credit score that was not theirs.

The person whose name they used had no idea it was happening until he tried to rent his first apartment and got turned down for debt he never created.

That is identity theft. And it does not start with someone stealing your wallet. It starts with information.

Watch this and find out exactly how it works and what to do right now to make sure it never happens to you.

Think your data is safe on public Wi-Fi? Think again!

Every time you connect, internet providers and advertisers log your activity. Worse, free public Wi-Fi at airports or hotels allows strangers nearby to watch your connection.

A traveler named Marcus learned this the hard way when a stranger in an airport lounge used a simple program to steal his company login and files over public Wi-Fi.

He could have prevented this with a VPN (Virtual Private Network). A VPN acts like a private tunnel, wrapping your connection in encryption to make data completely unreadable to hackers. Network security professionals build these secure systems, making it one of the most in-demand fields today!

One of the biggest misconceptions about cybersecurity is that you have to be a genius hacker.

In reality, some of the best professionals come from customer service backgrounds, because cybersecurity is no longer just an IT expense, it is a critical business survival strategy.

Most major breaches don't happen because of failed encryption; they happen simply because someone clicked a link in an email.

ChatGPT, Claude, and every AI tool you use hold pieces of your work, ideas, and sometimes sensitive data. A weak or reused password turns that convenience into a liability.

AI is only as safe as the account protecting it. Secure the front door now.
