The SANS ICS courses are the only ones I know that specifically focus on ICS; but yes, do not spend your own money to get expensive certs like those. Your employer should be paying on your behalf. Security+ is worth it if you’re making a lateral move to security.
Hey thankyou for taking the time to reply. Do you think a Security+ cert is worth it with my degrees or should I focus on something different? It sounds arrogant but I have been going through some of the practice exams and they seem pretty basic
It’s essentially a way to get your foot through the door if you’re trying to get into the security field. I guess if you’re planning to switch roles within your current org it’s not really necessary vs trying to get hired at a new company. I haven’t checked how much they cost, but maybe you can try some of the Cisco certs as well?
