Mentorship Monday - Discussions for career and learning!
(infosec.pub)
An umbrella community for all things cybersecurity / infosec. News, research, questions, are all welcome!
Enjoy!
I wouldn't worry about certs to start, especially not OSCP. Since you are in the software/dev space, I would consider security roles in the AppSec or CloudSec space as places to jump first. For that, consider going through PortSwigger's web security academy (free) training online to learn more about web vulns, their impact, how to mitigate, etc... If you want a cert, consider one from a cloud vendor and apply to jobs that use that vendor. If you can do even basic scripting, understand app-related vulns and use a few appsec tools then you should be an easy hire for a lot of places. (That said, I've been hearing the market for infosec is atrocious right now).
