How do I feel about finding bugs as my meal?

In real life, my fascination with cybersecurity began when I volunteered to help a local business secure its network after it experienced repeated unauthorized access attempts.

This real-world challenge piqued my interest much more than watching movies where hackers take on the FBI, CIA, and MI6. The experience taught me the value of practical solutions and spurred my desire to pursue a career in cybersecurity.

Life is different for me when I find bugs for a business. When two of us spend time on this, and someone reaches out saying they want a job in cybersecurity, I realize the person being asked about finding bugs may not have the formal education or even the correct spelling. That person is me.

I’m a Laravel PHP developer, and honestly, I dislike writing stories even more than coding. It’s especially frustrating when someone tells me, “Sorry, that’s not a bug, it was under development.”

What specific cybersecurity skills or certifications do you have?

The true answer is nothing. I have to show everyone that I have these fancy skills that I am sharing.

Can you share examples of bugs you have found or security projects you have worked on?

Yes, sure, I would like to share some of the information that I have worked on. Remember, I don’t work on XSS anymore until it doesn’t have any cookies, so that is clear.

Why are you interested in transitioning from PHP development to cybersecurity?

I am not interested in PHP, but I am interested if I am working on something good for myself, until it’s not for big bulls.

How do you handle documentation or reporting, given your dislike for writing stories?

I don’t know how I am handling all this stuff. It’s not so easy for me to work all the junk. Whenever I try to use ChatGPT, there are more chances that my report gets rejected. Any AI work I have ever done got rejected, so please use your brain, even if someone is able to check your spelling.
