but the real ones that are needed in the work. ideally, to hear
the answer from users who work in information security companies (example: digital security, inform protection, digital security, etc.)
count, for an employee, taking into account the lack of experience in working as a pentester
thank you

Answer 1

mostly inquisitive mind and perseverance

Answer 2

Availability of knowledge in this area, understanding of the principles of operation of software and information systems.

Answer 3

To date, the position of a security officer-practitioner is underdeveloped in this country - only paper.
Finding a job as a security guard with a minimal set of ideas about life is difficult. Qiwi, Kapsersky, Intel, Croc want to see in you the experience of cysca, reverse and knowledge of PL:

"Experience as a penetration tester or software developer for a wide range of software and hardware platforms, or a network engineer, or a cryptanalyst - at least 2 years;
Experience with tools: Burp Suite Pro, Metasploit Framework, SET."

, - this is from a headhunter in some office.
For money norms. An experienced gentleman does not receive rubles and has a CSF in proportion to what he read.
Won now, even the Ministry of Defense is looking for such hh.
