It's beneficial to explore foundational concepts like networking, operating systems, and programming languages. Cybersecurity is a broad field, so finding your specific area of interest—whether it's in ethical hacking, risk management, cryptography, or network security—can help you focus your learning efforts.

There are several pathways you can take to learn about cybersecurity: Formal education, bootcamps, online courses, etc.

A lot of good info here! I would echo what Abolfazl said about foundational concepts. It's very helpful to understand the basics before trying to protect, detect, respond, recover.
