Good day, I'm currently working in a corporation as a support engineer. Been in the field for 12years, love solving problems, taking the lead on projects, building infrastructure etc. I'm fasinated by security in such a way that it became a hobby, passion. And now I'm trying to make it a lifestyle. I got the CEH exam prep book and sybex, writing sometime in january. I understand that's only a entry level cert, so I'm doing a bootcamp at a well established pentest company sometime middle next year to get exposure. Afterwards I'm gunning for the rhce. My question: I'm putting everything I have in this. Is the market big enough out there for me to survive? I want to do it the right way, as I'm still old school. Or do I opt for searching for a post in the field and tail the experience ones and learn?
