Hello everyone,

I’m a 7th semester BCS student from CUST, Islamabad, and recently got really interested in cybersecurity, especially SOC/DFIR.

I wanted to ask people already in the field:

Does university background really matter for getting entry-level cybersecurity jobs/Internships ?

Are universities like FAST/NUST/GIKI generally preferred for these roles, or is it mostly skill-based?

Would appreciate honest answers from working professionals.
